They still have a lot of missing windows to install. And with one BMU they are probably only doing one a day weather permitting. Central Park Tower has been going crazy with four or five out at once ---

I am assuming that is the ‘window cleaning’ rig up there: but not sure. Is this building still under construction to some extent. This may be repair work on the damaged panels from the crane work. The building is a beauty; but has been one of the most time consuming, litigation filled, controversial building’s ever constructed in NYC. Then again: maybe the XI twisty towers downtown will qualify the the most ‘problematic’ residential construction project in NYC - time will tell. 😉 [Previous page](https://forum.newyorkyimby.com/t/new-york-111-west-57th-st-1-428-ft-91-floors/261.md?page=113) [Next page](https://forum.newyorkyimby.com/t/new-york-111-west-57th-st-1-428-ft-91-floors/261.md?page=115)
