• Saturday, 23 August, 2014

The North of the sixth level was prepared for

cement.

• Friday, 22 August, 2014

Columns for the seventh level arose in the

Northwest side.

• Thursday, 21 August, 2014

Work prepared level six for cement. There was a

late morning guided tour of the site.

• Wednesday, 20 August, 2014

The main work was on level six level as the floor

gang forms were completed.

• Tuesday, 19 August, 2014

Work started as weaving rebar and wire for the

sixth level. Crew was walking freely, at eye level

to the third-floor Building Blog cameras. Although

we could not see the details, the noises of

construction continued well past 7P.

• Monday, 18 August, 2014

The sixth floor gang forms were pronounced safe

and secure when the ports-pots were moved up

today. The rest of the day was floor gang forms

for the sixth level, stretching almost all across the

building, and new cement maintenance for the

fifth level.
