Judging by the renders and the last photos they've now completed the podium walls and are starting on the first floor of the tower. Things may speed up a bit in the coming weeks.

In the yellow bubble appears10 silver tubes/pipes/hoses, what are they? I thought they were part of the concrete pumping system but I see 10 more of them to the south and they’ve built rebar around them in a wall and they are staggered. Now I’m thinking they will pull cables through them and then prestress them in tension, does that make sense? Thoughts?

I like your telephoto lens.
I think you’re right with the tension cables. Some on the other longer west side walls too.
Pictures from May 8 & 10 and 14.

Not 100% sure if tensioners or not, but from the planning documents the 7th floor is the amenity level which is more open concept (image below) so the walls on this level have to support the change in layout from the hotel level above (8th & First Tower floor) which matches the one on level 6.

Are these depicting the approved height or the proposed height increase?

based on the height relative to Sugar Wharf 2 (tallest of which is 299m) these look to be the proposed height (344m & 306m)

The proposed heights under review, are what is depicted in these shots.

Wasnt able to grab a pic but looks like they are doing a big concrete pour this evening, trucks were lined up after regular construction hours.
