The site is being cleared for The Pearl II apartments at 1700 Pearl St. They’re ripping up the foundation of the previous structure and removing trees so far.

Not the best photo but I noticed something new from my office vantage point this morning. Structural frame is peeking out between the buildings. Office tower seems to be close to the hight of the residential building if not quite matching. Photo from UBS Tower floor 25.

My apologies for the poor quality photo I shot on my way to work this morning but there appears to be a huge ground crane on site now (on left in photo). It was mentioned earlier in this thread that there would be 4 tower cranes and a large ground crane. This one might be that fifth crane.

I really love this project. I will say I am a bit disappointed that both 16th and 17th are closed both ways (including sidewalks from what I could tell). I get that it's a big project but the city still needs to be able to function during construction. Just my two cents. 

[Gulch Union (Endeavor Demonbreun): 3 towers (20 story/329,000 s.f. office, twin 28 story residential buildings)]

I sincerely hope they are planning on covering the garage portion instead of just painting it as they have done. Would be a real shame with a project this visible. 

Taken today.

A portion of the second tower crane was going up today. 

[350 Deaderick Tower (21 stories on top of existing 12 story garage)]

I really hope this project is realistic. Here is a photo I took on Friday from above showing the double helix. I used to park in this garage and my experience wasn't particularly positive. The garage will definitely need some upgrades if it were to serve high end commercial tenants.

Also I had never experienced a more complicated elevator button pad than this

A few photos taken today before I left work. Photos taken from upper floors of UBS Tower. (Images may seem grainy partially due to the fact that UBS hasn't had the windows washed in ages lol).

Bit of a different angle of the Grand Hyatt with the courthouse in the foreground. Taken today.

Taken 9/30. Judicial Center update from upper floors of UBS tower. Exterior is seemingly complete and there appear to be solar panels on the roof.

Anyone know what is planned here at the corner of 17th and Pearl St? I saw this sign while waking today. Looks like they are wanting to change from R6 to Mixed use (I think). The daycare that was on this site was demolished over a year ago. The area could definitely use a solid mixed use development.

Took this earlier this evening. I thought it was a pretty neat shot. The storm had just moved on.

Zoomed in shot of Eakin building progress (taken from upper floors of UBS tower). 

Ground cranes for Four Seasons can be seen in bottom right.

Publix in The Residences at Capital View building appears closer to opening. Lots of signage going up (pictured along Charlotte). Really excited about this one in particular (no more trips to Belle Meade lol).

There is no guarantee Amazon will brand any of their towers with the name and logo.  I don’t believe the’ve done that in Seattle.  Many corporations choose not to do that even with a corporate headquarters buildings.  

Amazon has 30+ buildings in Seattle and none of them have the logo at the top so I think it's unlikely that would change here but who knows. I was really hoping for some type of interesting architectural element  in the project such as the Amazon Spheres project but maybe that could happen down the road if they expand beyond current plans.

Nashville Post reporting properties across from The Nashville Sign and near the Broadwest development in Midtown are under contract. Anyone know what might go up there?

The location of their headquarters will not be released until Monday. It will be interesting to see where they wind up.

Someplace already long standing or one of the buildings that are under construction or planned.

Amazon officially signed a lease for their two towers under construction. Interestingly, they will also get first dibs on the two other office buildings planned for the other side of Church. 

"It's official: Amazon has signed a lease for the downtown development where the company will station 5,000 office workers.

The lease also grants Amazon (Nasdaq: AMZN) first dibs on even more office space in the Nashville Yards development. That toehold gives Amazon room to swell beyond those initial 5,000 jobs — a widely held expectation in Nashville's business community, based on the company's track record in its home market of Seattle."

Snapped this pic on my way home along Church St. It's really fascinating to watch these being erected.

Crane for the apartment tower is rising today. Last week the crane was barely visible behind those buildings.
