15,000 m³ is an impressive number.
My company does oilfield cementing, and for us, a 100 m³ job is huge, as big as they come. A typical mixing/pumping rate would be 1.0 m³/min, meaning it would take over 10 days for us to do this job, assuming one pump, which is obviously an assinine assumption. The scale of this is just plain big. Lafarge or Inland or both must be salivating.
I will try to stay away from the area as I imagine it will mean lane closures and chaos. Although come to think of it, I have the Mother's Day run to attend. Hopefully things will be sort of normal by then.
But as far as the construction of the tower goes, I want my 6th Avenue back!!
