    This project started out about as slow as 1BW, but at its fastest, it achieved just about a floor per week, excluding mech levels. I expect this to achieve the same.

    You're taking Google Earth's "word" for it.

    By my reckoning, they'll be done pumping concrete in about three months unless there's something I'm not aware of.
