Very sad.  The trade mark building on the other block near here, a furman project, was also eifis system. I remember the snow walking by that site too.

i can’t believe high rise buildings are allowed to use this stuff.

Good enough for cups and to-go boxes, good enough for skyscrapers.

due to almost every street having blockage inside the loop uptown I can get some great drive by shots at 5 mph.

I wish 129 was pressure-washed.

I think that this is going to be really nice when it’s done.  This company’s buildings in every other market have turned out beautifully.

Looking good and this will be a great hotel and bonus shot of the Carillon building which is still one of my favorites.

Bonus shot of the Iveys and 5 Church a Charlotte celebrity hot spot. 

[KJHburg]

Walk by photos from Church and bonus shot of soon to be renovated 129 Trade just the lower floors though.

Third photo is streetcar construction in front of hotel.

walk by photos today of the hotel racing to completion.

Rode by this morning and saw construction workers actually vacuuming up the little Styrofoam bubbles that had blown into the street and onto the sidewalk!  Not sure if this is standard operating procedure and it seems like an impossible task, but sure was nice to see and I'm glad that they're at least trying.

If you see tiny bits of styrofoam on the ground at any construction site, or mud running off a site please call or fill out a service request online. The city actually follows up with these things quickly. We don't need things like this going into our (or Rock Hill's) drinking water. They were vacuuming because someone called it in.

walked by today and this site is always buzzing with workers as this hotel races towards completion. 

[KJHburg]

walk by photos today we need this contractor to build all hotels for they are fast!  I present the Grand Bohemian hotel.  Bonus shot of streetcar construction in front of it.

This crew needs to shuffle on down to the Intercontinental once they wrap up this one.

People are really starting to notice the styrofoam and they're pissed. GB better figure out how to fix this or mitigate it better before it becomes a major news story. Several of redditors are contacting news, EPA, and NCDNR.

Why is it so much worse on this project than others??

[A2.]

The more people that can bring this problem to the attention of  the ones who approve large projects, the better. Not a fan of EIFS. Perhaps enough people complaining might make for some stiffer restrictions on future project. However I doubt it, since building economically is the ultimate issue in whether a project is built or not. 

 I guess (like most) I am just a fan of better grade exterior materials (especially in High Rise Construction in Uptown). The Classics are timeless for a reason,. 

Gripe session over.

I watched a friend with pretty intimate construction knowledge describe JE Dunn literally shaving the EIFS off this building. They should expect a massive fine from the EPA.
