Week 13 in the ongoing Ⓢ series, which follows the construction of a new 13-story senior living building in San Francisco. This is a #construction #timelapse with various closeups and "sub-time-lapses" at various speeds, condensing the week of April 27 - May 2, 2020, into about 49 minutes.

Most of the closeups are concentrated on Thursday and Friday of this week, just the way it turned out. Although there are some scattered throughout. Monday only has one closeup (causing the video to have somewhat of a slow start) and Wednesday has none, while Thursday has a boatload. Some good views of the concrete pumping high-rise tower on Tuesday.

Trying an experiment on Monday and Thursday with showing the tower crane as an inset in the upper left, since the tower crane is not usually visible as we usually focus on the construction below. Not sure how well it worked out, but worth a try. May or may not continue it, as it adds more work for me! (You may notice flicker in that inset, because it comes from the base time-lapse camera and I didn't have time to run the deflickering software over it, which can take literally many hours of processing time.)

On Tuesday and Thursday nights, and during the day on Monday and Thursday, there's some work going on underneath the street. Possibly removing/replacing some electric power equipment, although I can't say for sure.

A lot of columns go up and get filled with concrete, there's always more rebar, and more shotcrete. Progress continues on the shoring/decking.

There's a drive-by protest parade circling around and around the neighborhood and the site for a while on Friday. Yep, this is one of the few construction time-lapses you see that includes a protest parade (can't call it a march, because they're not marching, they're driving).

And a little bit of fun and fooling around here and there. There were a few minor editing mistakes, but noticed them too late in the process to fix them.

There's no construction work on Saturday, but the camera catches a local "artist" at work on Saturday evening.
