ReplyDeletewil it be something like the king kong ride in Hollywood universal ?
ReplyDeleteThe "pillars" look like either steam or chilled water lines. They are welded together and transport chilled water or steam from a central generation plant to heat and cool the new building.
ReplyDeleteDitto on the "pillars" looking like steam or chilled water lines and maybe perhaps even Natural Gas(?).
ReplyDeleteAt this point everything looks to be utility/underground work and nothing is for vertical construction yet as the photos show no concrete foundations installed on the site yet.
the "pillars" are not pillars, they are as previous comments stated, steam or chill water piping
