Northside Piers: Pouring 20

Its been a while since we checked up on the progress over at the Northside Piers residential tower. After a blustery week of with daytime temps peaking in the twenties - and wind chills just north of zero - crews took advantage of the balmy (32° F / 7 mph wind) conditions Saturday afternoon and were seen pouring concrete for the tower's 20th floor.

During the week, contractors installed glass on the east side of the fourth and fifth floors, offering a preview of the finished product. The monotonous rows of aluminum-framed panes won't win any design awards, but the floor-to-ceiling views from within will be breathtaking.

With nine more floors to the summit, imnotsayin projects a topping-out sometime around late March. Toll Brothers expects first occupancy this fall.
