    It is probably just the angle of these posted pictures that make it difficult to compare to some of the renderings. I'm sure all of the other commentators are accurate in what they are saying. The...

    I guess I really did not mean a spire, I really meant a setback but did not know what to call them. It looks like there needs to be a lot more construction completed.

    The top of this building does not look like the renderings that we have been shown in the past. There were several spires indicated on the top of the building that either have yet to be constructed...

    From the latest picture taken on 2/22 there seems to be steel framework going on the present top of the construction. Not sure what this indicates but I would think they are getting close to topping...

    Looking at the latest pictures of the Hudson's building I think it is near the top but from what I can see it does not look like any of the pictures or renderings. Maybe they have a lot more building...

    But,

    Do you know if there is a way to pour concrete at that height and to be able to maintain some warmth to the forms while it cures. Obviously, steel does not require heat, but a concrete pour...

    With our extreme cold, can they pour concrete in these ambient temps we are having. Is there a method to supply warmth to the forms after the concrete is poured so it will cure before failing and...

    From what I can determine from some of the very latest pictures of this building it looks like it is taller now than the RenCen. Does anyone else agree with that thought.

    Ford has reduced salaried headcount this year alone by over 3000. They basically stopped internal combustion engine development. They have now cut back projected F 150 Lightning sales to 1/2 of what...

    With the UAW demands that could play a very large part in Ford's decision to delay the build of the battery plant in Marshall, MI. It could also be related that Ford customers just do not want an EV...

    I don't think it would be very safe for the operator to be lifted up by the crane and I think that would be against some Federal Regulation. It is a very long climb and I'm also sure somewhat tiring....

    That is why the Monroe Blocks has been delayed and thrifted back in size and design. No specific plan for the Hudson's Site yet either. I know it is a lot of money for Bedrock, but I'm just extremely...

    I think it is outstanding and even with it being built at a snails pace it will all be very worthwhile when it is completed. Outstanding addition to the skyline and Woodward Ave.

    That would be great if it really happens. But, it will be something different from the autonomous group as Ford has discontinued development. Farley keeps saying Ford has too many engineers.
