Photo: West tower gets breathing room

31-Aug-10 – (Above) For the first time since April, the base of the west tower is free of its scaffold canopy. This is how the east entrance to the new Subway restaurant looked like Tuesday morning after scaffolding was removed on Monday.

Concrete restoration continues on the east tower, where it is about halfway done, and should be completed by the end of the year. With good weather, work could be done by the end of October, according to a memo to residents from the property management office.
