    To me I think the center section only consists of a walkway connecting the two towers with a glass wall on the outer side

    I think they need night lights and start working around the clock.

    In the rendering eventually the center section connects with many floors, i'm not sure if it a walkway or rooms but there is lots of work to be done to consider it finished. The clock is running, tick tock tick tock, just saying.

    I hate to say this but I just showed my husband the pics that Steve posted yesterday. Shawn (my hubby) has been in construction for 30 years. Construction of buildings way larger than this. He said no well in hell is that going to be open in August. We booked for a week starting Nov 26. He told me to cancel it.

    I hope he's wrong but................

    Thus the reason we haven't booked yet. Temptation may be reopening on August 15 this year but it will be a active construction zone for many more months. For our first return trip to the new Temptation we want it to be super special and the construction complete only because we really didn't have any issues with the old Temptation.

    Shawn said the same thing. When we go he wants it to be complete. We don't want to listen to construction work and have only half the amenities available.

    I wonder if the elevator shaft would be going in the center someplace? Or is each wing going to have their own?

    My guess would be as shown below, but based purely on guesswork and the fact we cant see any evidence of elevator shafts in the work done so far. That's where I would put them anyway.
