If nothing else, the Finger building has provided some much needed excitement during the August doldrums in the local news business! If not for the seemingly weekly changes to this unfinished building’s height, well, we would just have to write about something else. The latest tidbit comes courtesy of the Observer, which writes that The Finger (no one does seem to call it The Albero), located at 144 North 8th Street, will in fact rise to 14 stories and not ten, as Crain’s reported just two days ago! As for a timeline, the construction manager promised it would be done in ten months. GMAP
