Looking from my office this morning I was surprised at the amount of rebar that went into the crane base. Looks like they started the pour after I finished work at 2:30 today.
Wow so that have that base filled in. Last night I checked the cam and you couldn't see the concrete. Now at the 7:40am photo it's done. Quick work this AM!
Also they're ripping out the street along Hargrave. Or maybe it's just the sidewalk bump out.

I think it was mostly the rest of the sidewalk after moving the fence. They had ripped out most of the sidewalk long ago. Kind of hard to see in the shade right now.

Well it is a rather important bit of concrete so the more reinforcing the better
I checked. Yes it is just the sidewalk that was moved onto the street. They'll scoop it up any minute now and haul it away. The curb there was pretty nice and big. Probably because it was only 2 years old.
The workers were using the big red crane to move some large pieces of steel from a flatbed to the ground along Graham.
Base for 2nd tower crane is currently in work right now close to the church hall.
The concrete base pad appears to be in place and they were just lifting out the steel bolt pad as I walked by the office window, I guess to do the rebar work to start before they pour the sold concrete block.
I noticed the other hole up against the wall. It was kind of hard to see in the photos. July tower crane schedule is right on pace. I would suspect they are letting concrete cure prior to installing the cranes. So on a 28 day strength, thats maybe 2 more weeks.
I see that it is currently being dropped back on the concrete floor. There are surveyors there so it may have been taken out of the hole to have leg adjustments made or locked in place as to make sure its level.
Thanks for the updates guys, I was curious if it was the 2nd crane or not from the angle of the webcam capture.They seem to be right on schedule, great news..
Can't really see it from the picture but the crane base by Graham Ave is sunken while the base by the church is at ground level when I look out my office window.
For something a little different I had time on my evening dinner break a few days ago to take a picture of the camera / solar panel that TNS is using to provide construction pictures from the top of MTS Center
