A full floor of glazing when viewed from Victoria square has been completed. Even though it was overcast when I drove past it's quite striking in its appearance and looks really high quality!

Installing the windows along Post Office lane. This window was lowered into place by crane but got a really fast spin on it but the workers managed to control it and got it nicely into place very quickly.

I don't think they are available anymore, I just have a few of the bigger development applications archived.

It's looking more and more hopeful that the look and feel of the facades will help redeem the boring shape.

I like the contrast between the blue windows and sandstone clock tower - a more meaningful contrast than that champagne colour some of the renders made it look like. It helps the old stand out from the new.

I agree. Sleek modern classic. I did hope the other tower to be taller but if this isn’t the place for it, we can build taller elsewhere.

What other tower? This literally is the last one in the City Central development to be built (only took 20 years!).

The one next to it, the grey box. Finished a few years back. BHP building?

Progressing nicely. I am guessing the core is at its tallest point now?

If this turns out anything like the renders, which it's looking like it will, it wont age well.
