August 31 am Still no signs of cladding but really starting to climb
Lots of notches on this one. They are usually for steel.
Those are block-outs. Usually those are where the anchors are located that attach the cladding to the structure. Common for precast or curtainwall panels that are in front of shear concrete walls.Lots of notches on this one. They are usually for steel.
I still wish this were 50s +, especially since it's on prime real-estate overlooking the square:
i cant get over the lack of renders for this thing. ridiculous. only showing the side that isn't even the face of it. what does the fronting side look like/will look like? anyone no why this is being built with little public info. should i say how is this being built with no renders.
Normally I'd agree, but with this design, I'm not so sure. Though we haven't seen many renderings of this, so maybe it'll surprise me.
thank you, I didn't realise this!It's a rental, and rental units are in high demand, so there is no need to market it. Renderings are costly to produce, and exist primarily to get word out, which is why they only made one. Renderings are used in certain planning documents, but they aren't mandatory.
With that being said, I wonder when or if the Hard Rock building will ever be redeveloped.
