From the latest (non-) Construction Update: again, no new work, just continued open space work in fountain area at 595 Dean

The latest Atlantic Yards/Pacific Park Construction Update (bottom), covering the two weeks beginning  Monday, Oct. 2, was circulated yesterday at 12:03 pm (lead time) by email by Empire State Development (ESD), the state authority that oversees/shepherds the project.

As with the Update two weeks ago., there's no major construction activity, but, at the B12/B13 towers (595 Dean), "East Courtyard Work ongoing for the fountain area." That's incremental progress from the previous alert, which said work "remains to be completed pending final delivery of materials." 

Indeed, the open space isn't yet done, though the buildings have been open for months--albeit not for the "affordable" units.

Baseline competency

The document notes that weekday work hours are 7 am-6 pm and adds "Saturday work is not currently scheduled during this reporting period."

That clarification is a reminder that, for many months, the Updates had misleadingly suggested after-hours work might continue and also suggested that platform work might start.

I'd note that ESD does not update the public on work at the middle-school in the base of B15, 662 Pacific Street (aka Plank Road), which is being built by the School Construction Authority.
