One-week construction time-lapse: Ⓗ Week 161: Last curtain wall; bye to tower crane 1

The 161st week in this "Ⓗ series", in which we're following the construction of a new 12-story hospital that will occupy an entire city block in San Francisco, as well as an associated Medical Office Building (MOB) across the street (although we don't see any of the MOB this week). This is a one-week #construction #timelapse with various closeups and "sub-time-lapses" at various speeds scattered throughout, condensing the period of July 24-30, 2017, into about 41 minutes.

It is a fight against the wind to complete installation of the #curtainwall glass panels before #towercrane number 1 is scheduled to be dismantled. Then we see the 5-day process as they disassemble tower crane number 1. This regular weekly episode contains an overview of the process. I will be making a more detailed video about the tower crane disassembly, coming soon. Once the tower crane is down, and again fighting the wind, they use the same mobile crane that was used to take down the tower crane to install the last curtain wall and roof screen panels, finally winning the battle against the wind by starting before daylight on Sunday morning. When Sunday ends, we see the hospital completely tower-crane-free for the first time in years. Meanwhile, the endless stream of aluminum composite panels is gradually going up on the front of the hospital.

I'm using the same music for all of these time-lapses, because there are too many of them and they're too long to license different music for each one. There's no dialogue or other audio in these time-lapses, just music (with one exception, which was back in Week 118), so you are welcome to turn down the volume and provide your own accompaniment music.
