Work continues apace for our new neighbour, the Schwarzman Building. The main piling works - 537 piles using 4142.6m3 of concrete - will complete ahead of schedule by the end of next week. Works will continue to break out the tops of the piles and apply the capping beam to tie them all together.
The first tower crane is expected to be delivered and built on the weekend of 15th and 16th April (or possibly one of the two following weekends). The big dig out of the basement will also commence in April.
The contractors are looking to organise another safety awareness session in the near future with an articulated lorry wagon on site for people to climb into to get a drivers perspective of what they can see (directly out of the window, in the mirrors, and on the cameras they have these days) and hence be more aware of how safe, or unsafe, you may be depending on how you cycle and they drive!
