I haven't been able to get into this construction site, but I have been able to get into a similar construction site for the 2nd Avenue Subway, a mere 90' underground (East Side Access is 180' underground), and I can confirm that being there is exactly as awesome as the pictures make it seem.
Boooooooooooooring.
They've done a lot of it.
Looks like Prometheus.
Do I see what looks like quad-TBM holes?
When do our TBM's get here, again?
