Seems like one of those projects where you want to be the one who buys it on the cheap from the guy who went bankrupt taking it to 90% completion.

Agreed, but not sure I'd want to own any assets development by Strategic. The amount of corner cutting is likely immeasurable.

Hmm working on the roof... I forget are they doing a fancy penthouse?

Second level of the penthouse is well underway. Might start to see some more substantial steps towards completion as we work our way into the fall. I still give it a year before its done. The interior will be a lot of work.

Where'd you find that render? I can't find any recent renders (with the 12th storey addition)

Didn't they just sign up for more conversions? Seems odd they'd sign up for more when this took so, so long.
