The temporary platforms at the 10th floor (at left) are being moved down to allow demolition to progress at the next story. Clearly visible here is the structure supporting the temporary platform: suspension cables and steel beams overhanging the remaining steel frame at the perimeter of the building. The planks above the platform protected the mechanics on the temporary platform from debris falling from above.
