Why it mattered

High-rise and mixed-use projects run on rhythm. Hold the floor cycle and the building climbs steadily. Lose it and every trade behind it pays.

The challenge

A developer built a waterfront district with several towers, a retail center and two hotels.

Many contractors and staggered openings made program-level control the only way to keep the whole in view.
