By the way, what is the current progress of the Main Building? Is the interior finally done or are people starting to move to that building?

Are you crazy? I would never demolish a brand new building, even if it were damaged by fire (unless it had severe structural problems). If I were to rebuild it from scratch, the workers would mess up and the building would not look the same. This is about the restoration of a fire-damaged building. I have a prediction that the work will last five years or more.

Whoa, those pictures are awesome! The building looks rendered, but it is real

I took this on Feb 17th, the CCTV II looks horrible

So they really haven't done much to clean up the damage for a year!

The worst part is that it's next to one of the greatest buildings ever! Which is now also behind that big bunker-like wall.

It must be a pretty tricky job to get the old cladding off safely. It looks like it could fall off at any moment.
