Turns out some of the apartments that they leased for September... won't actually be done until December.

Whoops.

It appears to be entirely wood construction, right? How did they frame the "flat iron" corner?
It' also kind of interesting that they did 4 levels of actual brick and then 2 levels of lick'n'stick directly above trying to match color below.

What a weird project. Besides the weird shape it's also like two miles long, and they've been slowly working on it for what feels like forever.

A brick facade on a stick building can only go about 4 stories up, because of different rates of expansion/contraction between the brick and the wood. So to go above that you have to go to brick tiles if you want the look of a continuous brick structure, or a different material entirely.
