Its starting to look like the building is finishing up on the outside here. 
The low rise section along Grand St. now has bricks and windows filling it in. Im thankful this did not turn into an ugly garage along Grand St. Not that its an architectural masterpiece, but it couldve been a lot worse. 
Remediation work has taken effect at the powerhouse in the form of removal of the steel plates which are welded to the surface of some windows. I suppose the next step will be to replace all teh windows so that interior work can begin as well as some external work that needs to be done.
As the sheathing comes down, the old and new exteriors of the old police precinct are revealed.

Across from the Home Depot on Grove St. or Manilla or whatever the hell its called over there, there is a newly opened liquor store. I havent been inside yet, but Im hoping, based on their size, that they actually sell kegs there which would save a little distance into the Hoboken distributor.This is actually a big deal because apparently, this isnt only the biggest Buy Rite, but the biggest Liquor store in all of New Jersey at 27,000 sq ft. with a possibility to expand to a full 60,000. Yay. Another score for JC and its soon to be a little drunker residents.
Bricks going up along the front. Glad they didnt opt for the vinyl siding which some of the shittier projects seem to be doing
Framing goes up above the concrete base at the corner building.
Some odd staircase is proturing into the sidewalk but maybe it will make sense when this thing is complete. Who knows.
The two cranes are working feverishly to get this thing off the ground, and they have been doing their job. The concrete structure has shot up about 11 stories so far and creeps up a little more every day. Here is is adjacent to the existing Doubeltree hotel and across from the Westin.
