I sure hope they leave that wood exposed inside.

Very cool! It reminds me of The Museum, some of whose floor plates appear to be made entirely of 2x6es (and look like regular hardwood from above). Does anybody know how they are made? I mean, do they glue together a whole bunch of planks next to each other at a factory and then deliver big panels to the work site the same as the precast concrete used for many projects, or do they individually install them on site?

It's cross-laminated timber (CLT), and, yes, you do buy the pre-made floor slabs, doing glue on the construction site would be slow and would not ensure the same level of structural strength.

You can see details here, for example:
