Another view of the construction(30/6/04):

heirloom · June 30th, 2004, 05:44 PM

that looks like it's just the core is it?

***David-80*** · July 1st, 2004, 04:46 AM

wow, nice project, Singapore will be more dense when this one finished

cheers

RafflesCity · July 1st, 2004, 09:34 AM

yup its most probably just the core..from afar its obvious the actual building wont be so slim.

babystan03 · July 1st, 2004, 10:15 AM

I agree.....look too slim from afar to be the main building(30/6/04)......

heirloom · July 1st, 2004, 10:34 AM

so many days still that height -_-"

or maybe so many pictures make it seem like a long time

huaiwei · July 1st, 2004, 10:45 AM

Well..its a solid concrete block....cant possibly be the building's width with no windows!

redstone · July 1st, 2004, 12:57 PM

Wow, its rising fast.

can clearly see some holes in the core..entrance to the lifts for the 2nd storey perhaps?

babystan03 · July 8th, 2004, 07:19 PM

I notice those "holes" when I was on bus the other day....seems like the progress is rather good.......

huaiwei · July 8th, 2004, 07:36 PM

Raffie sneaks up the lifts again!

ignoramus · July 9th, 2004, 05:14 PM

The holes in the core in comparison with the little tiny human figures look pretty big to be entrances for the lifts, and the holes also seem too far apart from one another and too few to be lift entrances. A building that height surely has to have more lifts right.....hmm...at least the core can be seen from the ground level though. Wonder if this will be completed on time.....everything in Singapore seems to be delayed nowadays....

RafflesCity · July 10th, 2004, 11:40 AM

oh I wasnt referring to those holes as the actual lift entrances, rather they might be the entrance passages to the row of lifts which will be housed within that concrete core.

I would say that compared to 2003 and 2002, the construction pace this year seems much better with more major projects launched. Just this year, a 245m condo was announced as well as the release of the BFC project (possibly 245m). Heres the lineup of office scrapers coming...

10 July 2004

I see 2 changes:

2 metal columns are erected on the right of the pic. I think they will be the supporting skeleton for the actual building and might be a clue to its actual size. The core also seems to be growing with those metal rods sticking out at the back.

huaiwei · July 10th, 2004, 09:13 PM

Pretty skinny from this angle eh?
