As seen from Luquer Street


As seen from Nelson Street







It was time to check in on 100 Luquer Street, the 11-story finger building designed by architect Karl Fischer. No visible progress seems to have been made since I last took photos back in July. For a while now, the construction site has been locked up and no one has been working.
When I came home, I checked the Department of Buildings web site and was not surprised to find out that the project has been slapped with a partial stop-work order on July 7 for not having "a licensed rigger on site." Then, on August 28th, another one was issued for failure to comply to the first stop work order.
There is also an outstanding $5,000 fine which is now due.

In the meantime, this monstrosity is looming over the neighborhood, with half its glass façade missing.


Any comments, dear reader
