40th Floor Roof - Shaw Tower

UPDATE (04/10/13):  I know some came with us to three floors of the building for inspection.  I will be posting those soon.  So much has been happening since we did that tour a few months ago that I needed to attend to other Soho Central and personal matters first.

We were unable to get the the Mayflower Tower those few months ago due to the door being locked.  But, after I post those three floors we did inspect;  we will finish the 40th Floor inside and then the other roof and on to other floors.  Yes, many observations to be made.
 
40th Floor Roof - Shaw Tower

(original web post 09/27/12):  Better late than never. While I have posted a great deal there is much more. Each time I speak with someone such as the conversation I had yesterday, my list of work increases. Perhaps it was good that this second set of photos was delayed.

I had written about the 40th floor roof and other balconies & terraces and the reason for locked doors and questions as to why Century never put in the lights. The 40th floor roof door is locked from the hallway though a guard will unlock upon request. I was told that two tenants were fighting and the woman partner threatened to jump so the door was locked.

Anyway, there was much work on both tower roof tops due to water damage from leaks and other things such as cracks. After the work was complete, I took some photos. I am not sure what they used for repair but the cracks returned and items were missed.


I guess someone forgot their broom -

Do we need to chip in for some sandpaper and paint? I would also hope they use a rust resistant paint. The repair filler they used for the cracks was not that which expands and would be better. They went cheap and now place OUR money in other banks. Hmmm. Why other banks? Who knows whom?



This was from a satellite dish no one from CPMI ever said was not allowed. Of course, the reason they were let to damage the building is unknown. Perhaps a secret Board meeting had a discussion. Oh, that's right, we cannot see Minutes of those secret meetings.



These are light fixtures never installed.



I know so much other work and these plates may never get replaced.



Our trip to the roof that day saw another common occurrence. Plugs of emergency lights not plugged.
