thanks for the pictures, Ken. I was surprised to see how much work still needs to be done at the north property.

I'm in 6657 (no late night visitors, please!). ;)

It's the northern most 1-bed in building 6, 6th floor. The last unit (on the corner) is a studio, and I must say, they have an even better view!

This building (or at least this part) doesn't even have units build with views of the island/parking lot, which is wondeful. Island View really can be pool view.

FWIW, even though they say they're "full" the place feels almost empty. I've been told that they are fewer people per unit right now - makes sense, given that school is starting and while there are families here they are only those with really young children.

The pictures from the helicoper were from May 2006.

The North property (which is where I am right now) appears to have finished the building construction in most areas if not all, and is now focused on interior work for buildings 7 and 8.
