if it's about Cardiff.. Sport, Entertainment, Transportation, Business, Development Projects, Leisure, Eating, Drinking, Nightlife, Shopping, Train Spotting! etc.. then we want it here!
Custom House will be a big bastard too! It will have to be tied back to the structure (too tall to be free-standing), but it will have a base at the same level as the main pile cap.
Only one at Capital Quarter for number 3 at the moment, although I'm sure one will go up for number 4 soon, then for the Herbert Street tower. The cranes for Capital Quarter student housing the other side of numbers 1 and 2 have been down for a while, it almost looks finished now with most of the scaffolding down.

What is happening at custom house?
Edit: this is the 42 storey Watkins Jones build. When is this starting?

The design has re-started and there are ongoing discussions with various prospective sub-contractors. There's also a lot to sort out with the utility diversions, Network Rail approvals etc. It's happening, but there's quite a bit to get through before the excavators can turn up on site. Hopefully there won't be any further hicups.
