It almost definitely has something to do with the BMU

I hope so! I’m tired of those ugly nostrils all around Tower 1. Time to fix this thing and put the windows back.

I don’t think anyone cares a fraction as much about this as I do, but it’s so satisfying to see the windows being cleaned on this building. The transformation of the surface is incredible

Oh I care! These classy glassy buildings shouldn’t be so dirty

[baronson]

I care. It’s bad enough the building was value-engineered to all hell. The least they can do is keep the damn thing clean and shining.

Speaking of shining… they need to fix that beacon.

[bpc]

The beacons in some shop in New England… it should be done eventually

[Tectonic]

Have they ever finished cleaning this thing?

[bpc]

No; In that last photo the really pale sections are covered in the dirt from during construction of the building.
At this point, about 75% of the building has been cleaned to some degree since construction. Once this job on the west side is done the building should be 85-90% clean.

[Tectonic]

Got it.

Nice find Thomas!

[bpc]

Now imagine if the whole building was as clean as the bottom part in that picture

Further buildout of the contraption on east side of parapet

[YIMHudson]

heck of a way to spend the heat wave

[baronson]

Looks like they kept the mech lights on during the fireworks display. I think in the past they have shut those lights off.

Also hopefully one day those alien looking work lights will be gone.

Great find!

One day…

[bpc]

There’s something clearly protruding from the rings now

[ophizer]

what do you mean by “alien looking work lights”?
