I was quite dismayed to see the second apartment tower has been all but squashed.

https://theportager.com/shalersville-streetsboro-deal-will-raise-new-revenue-and-prevent-annexation-of-the-township/ Over 7 million square feet of new “light industrial” buildings to be constructed! 😮

Whoa, this courtyard is badass! Thanks @KJP!

My goodness, check out that rebar!

Visual evidence of them pouring the caissons! It must take SO many cement trucks just to fill one tube.

Haha, god it feels good to be a winner! I must give credit to my guy Todd, who is supplying the pics twice a week.

Ok, now these are some caisson sized drill bits! 🤩

Is this a giant drill bit to start the caissons?

My new joint. 😆 Gonna just put this right here.

The hole on the left has been completely filled.

The land where the skyscraper is going has been dug out a few feet and the hole on the left was filled with gravel.

Thanks @Larry1962! I still prefer when the siding was red but this sleek-ass black cladding will suffice. 😁 Hey Dan Whalen, can you make the Phase II tower red?? 😉

It looks like the Hasawai apartment tower has nearly topped out. At least all the concrete appears to have been poured.

The transformation has been nothing short of phenomenal. The downtown is vibrant with activity and young people now. There are 2 apartment towers with a 3rd being constructed now and a 4th coming after that. It's a great place to live. And there is even more construction coming soon with a new city hall and Kent State expansion

No cranes in the sky for All Star Game? Don't these giant red ones pointing 10 stories up count!?

Courtesy of my friend Todd. He's got a helluva view. As we can see, they are digging some dirt out on the left and middle bottom. What's it mean?? Is it for utilities? Or basements of future buildings?

Hasawai Building update. 4th floor went up pretty quick. There was a month or two in the summer when no work was going on but it's back on track.

Haha, thanks! That’s my new buddy, Murray.

3 Floors are done. Somewhat oddly, the second floor has the tallest ceilings.

Yeah I dunno it scared the crap out of me. That’s BADASS you fly planes!
