Not as professional as your shots timtam20292 but here's one I took this morning showing the new core heights.

So are we completely sure that the height of this thing will be 122.5m? I’ve heard various figures.

Yeah me too. There's a few different measurements going about. I even heard one contractor thought it was 39 levels, not 37? Bit awkward.

When seeking height approval, building materials, etc I think everyone involved should always begin with asking "how long is a piece of string?", especially when outlining their measurements. Makes it more fun that way.

All you need to know Viny is there's always a possibility to go higher when one asks "how long is a piece of string".

How will that happen when the design is very different?

The black stump now looks a lot better with the newer developments going up. When it was just that and West Pac doing the heavy lifting it was grim.

Northern core has risen. It now matches the south.

I noticed this today from the top of Kensington Road! It's certainly an impactful building.

Half a core rise today. Not sure if it’s still going or that’s as high as it’s going to get.
