They've added another row of glass on both sides!

This is a really nice shot.  Shows two very stylish glass high-rise towers framed by two concrete low-rise, stylish developments.  Sprinkle in the green foliage and voila!  Very nice.

I'm wondering if the core might be topped out now.  I think it raised recently and if you added four more levels (I realize that the top one is just an extra row of glass on the roof that looks like another floor but isn't) you'd end up with enough to finish off the third and fourth sections.

That is good coverage by MontanaGuy.  Today I got this shot looking over the Hermitage Hotel and it appears the rebar has elbows on it which usually signals a topping out of some sort.  Could be a penthouse level.  But there is reason to expect some additional height based on the drawings and the current state of the core.  Guess we will soon find out.

I'm not at all suere what you mean by "rebar with elbows".  What we see here in the photos is the floor of the last occupied floor of residences, which will be two story townhouse type units.  The roof of those units will be the building roof.  There will be no "penthouse level" beyond taking the service designated elevator above the roof and the two stair cores above the roof.  There is no mechanical requirement for a penthouse. .  As contemporary elevator designs require nothing like an old fashioned penthouse overrun beyond a hoist beam ,  all we are going to see is a small and blocky extension to provide access to the roof.  This will be perhaps 15% or so of the roof floorplate and will mostly concealed by the glass fence around the perimeter of the slab.  If you expect more than this, I am pretty sure you will very disappointed.

A couple of photos from today, the second one from the top of my building.

Here is a view looking west from Sixth Avenue.   The two story pillars are clearly visible.

Thanks for the photo update!  Someone should change the tile of this thread to reflect the actual finished floor count.  Right now the thread says 38-floors, but as you noted above, they are already beyond that and several more to go.

Right, I saw the 39 and was like dang, this one's going taller than we thought!

[Bos2Nash]

  Just gonna quote myself here from last month. There is a mezzanine floor associate with the 38th floor. It does not count as an actual building level. This building is permitted for 38 occupied floors.

Not adding anything to the conversation, but pulled this from the permit drawings. 38 stories and a Mezzanine at 456'-0" to the top of the mechanical penthouse.

Understandably so, but they can call it whatever they want mezzanine, balcony, two story penthouse etc. it’s still double the height of a single floor, and when we see and count “ levels “ there’s more then 38. 

Sorta like a 38 story building with a 100 foot “crown “ it’s technically 38 stories but as tall as a 50 story building. Like Batman isn’t really 617 feet of occupied space

NO more to go.  The elevators will not stop at this mezzinine floor level at all as a real  floor.  Perhaps  it will have a service stop, but no tenant elevator lobby will exist probably.  The floor slab will likely not go to the outer walls as this is a double height  to allow soaring liiving rooms and such on the top floor as ultraluxury units.  Bos2 has it right.  The roof slab on this "level" will be the roof of the building.  Not taller than we thought.  No changes from the permiting guys.

 

[Luvemtall]

I’m no math wiz , but I just counted four times  the above grade levels and they are definitely at 39 with about 20ish feet left to the core still showing. Bos2Nash and Baronakim I totally understand and respect your knowledge, but that’s not what I believe we are seeing. I’m sure I’m not the only one that is experiencing this ,dare I say optical illusion .
