The Construction of 103 Colmore Row - July 2020
103 Colmore Row is so close to structural completion now with one of the last beams being installed on 17th July. Here are various views of 103 Colmore Row in July 2020. Did you know that it is in direct line of sight of Castle Bromwich Hall? Ellliott has returned to the City Centre for the first time in over 100 days of lockdown and has got some close up views while in town.

10th July 2020 from Castle Bromwich Hall Gardens
103 Colmore Row can be seen directly down the hill from Castle Bromwich Hall.
The square unusually quiet at lunchtime, with most office workers yet to go back to work. Colmore Gate was looking taller than 103 Colmore Row here. Just the odd person on a bicycle.

The Construction of 103 Colmore Row - Late June 2020
103 Colmore Row claims to be 'Above all else', well it pretty much is now as it's on the top of the ridge above the Rea Valley where the city centre drops down towards Digbeth and Southside. The building is very close to structural top out and the cladding is being glimpsed from much further away now. Loads of photos in this post from our regular contributors...

But of course, you don't need to visit Birmingham City Centre to be able to capture a glimpse of the building. It's awe-inspiringly visible from the suburbs too as these pictures from Elliott Brown show.

"Over the next two weekends (weather permitting) we bid a fond farewell to Tower Crane A. Another big milestone in the project as we enter the final 12 months of construction" - SPV
Staircase frame is reminiscent of New York's Vessel.

The Construction of 103 Colmore Row - March & April (2020) update
An average of 17 glass panels a day will be fitted onto this new, 26-storey, Birmingham landmark. This update shows the progress made on site in March and April, with the structural steelwork superstructure continuing its upward rise, closely followed by the beautiful glazing facade. Already a new Birmingham Gem!

Update by our follower of construction Mr Stephen Giles.
Work has re-commenced on site soon after the well-earned Christmas and New Year break.
Steelwork is back on the rise, now reaching levels 8 & 9, but without doubt the biggest news saw the first batch delivery of glass panels delivered on Wednesday (January 15th).
Having arrived from Italy, the panels have been designed by the Italian firm, Focchi; a specialist in window and curtain walling systems.
This latest update shows the fantastic progress being made on site, but also shows an exclusive first glimpse of the cladding.
