Does anyone have any recent pics of the renovation? It seems like the Book-Cadillac is the main focus. Is the interior demo complete? New windows in? Facade cleaning in progress?

I just walked by about 1/2 hour ago...no windows yet and the outside is still dirty as hell...but you can see guys working on it and there's a contruction elevator set up on the Fort Street side...

Seems to be coming a long ok...remember they just started working on it not that long ago

I'm going to be down there again on thursday...I'll take some pics if I can remember to bring my camera

also, there's already a dedicated thread on this topic

They keep throwing debris from the upper floors down a big metal chute into a dumpster, and it sounds like a thunderstorm rolling in. Work is definitely progressing over there.
I know some downtown residents were complaining about the noise and dust, but I for one am thrilled to see that building brought back!
