Anticipating Symphony Suites

The structural construction of Symphony Suites has completed for some time and interior work is carrying on. However, the progress seems tardy as I find from my observation, condition at its lobby doesn’t change much after passing by several times over the past few months. Even the exterior painting touch up seems halted, leaving some surfaces in uneven color appearance. The project may be in trouble with financial or technical, but hopefully it will be resolved soon and we will be expecting its grand opening in near future.
