well.. silver or brick coloured, it'll match springleaf tower.

Just asking, I can't seem to find it(if there is one)

There isnt one, but heirloom has posted a pic here (http://www.skyscrapercity.com/showthread.php?t=54176&page=19&pp=20) and there was some discussion in the General Construction News thread.

I wonder what theyre gonna do to it though..its still wrapped up in ugly green nets

No!

Recladding had already started a long time ago!
No pics! :wallbash:

And its such a big and grand building!

i have one pic with it when it JUST started recladding.. unfortunately the pic is dominated by springleaf and temasek... oh well better than nothing. if i spot anything else before this in my photos i'll post.

the new facade looks slightly more grey

I'm quite suprised no one 'chased' the tower's progress....

Nothing much to chase what.......:yes:

Why?
Very slow or not much change?:?

Judging by the pictures posted here, not much change......:yes:

Looks like it's been halted???:?

They might as well save the money and use it to print nicer looking banknotes.:D

:lol:

i can't remember... but i think its finished. not much change - just cladded now instead of being painted. but maybe i'm wrong.

The recladding works have been completed, along with a newly renovated Penthouse (30th storey). The view from the Penthouse is breathtaking as well, but I don't think i'm allowed to post those pictures here... :(
