    They have been building multi-million dollar resorts on what can only be thought of as non-advantageous terrain due to the ocean and sandy ground and they have been staying upright for decades! I trust what they are doing, and I will just stay drunk enough to not think about it haha

    As long as it is hard and thick when I get there in September, it will all be good. (the concrete!)

    Looking good! I'm still very optimistic that come Sept. 30 the resort will be rocking!

    Steve is there any way you can confirm if it is seven total floors or seven floors of rooms above the base structure?
    ...as they are technically working on the seventh floor now

    There seems to be a lot of speculation on the missing center section, but I am wondering if what you see now is essentially the extent of any tower construction, and there will be no center tower, but only a few floors in that area. Steve just confirmed that the decks they are working on now is the maximum height, which is significantly different than the original concept drawing. Concept drawings are often far different than the final plan and construction, and perhaps there will be no center tower. This would put them much further ahead in construction, and far closer to the finish line. Leaving that area open also would let in a lot of late afternoon light to the pool area. Just a thought....

    The construction should be okay. After all they aren't using any illegal aliens. :)
