· The foundation and structure of the terminal building is substantially complete and work is continuing on the final phases for the terminal building

· Each of the four legs for the wheel, which weigh 550 tonnes and measure 18 feet wide and 275 feet tall, are complete and ready to be erected onto the four pedestals already on site

Mark Gustafson, the Company's Chief Executive Officer said: "Based on my tour of the NYW Project site last week, the parking garage is fully functional and great progress is being made on the terminal building. Despite recent press speculation, we are very confident that this project will be completed and should be another successful GOW like the London Eye."
