My guess is that it will be handled inhouse as its a Homburg-Centron project and they usually work like that.

Is that on the phase II site? Probably on the west edge I'm assuming.

MichaelS · #50 Posted **Jul 9, 2010, 7:35 PM**

I think it is the phase 2 site. The one between 6th and 7th Ave. There is already one crane fully up, and then this base. It is kind of in the NW/N Central part of the site.

MrBigStuff · #51 Posted **Jul 14, 2010, 2:18 AM**

Having seen the new rendering of Oslo - it looks like there will be several cranes on that site - as that covers quite a distance.

Bigtime · #52 Posted **Jul 23, 2010, 11:01 PM**

The second crane is up at Bow Valley College Phase II.

Added the 6th crane at SAIT to the count.

Only 33 cranes? The economy is tanking!!!

There's a crane set up at Red Haus in Royal Oak. It's not huge but it's not a truck crane, so it's some sort of tower crane (even if it's just for a 4 story structure). I can't remember the "official" crane criteria anymore - come back Frink!!!!!!

If it is one of those ones operated from the ground I won't include it in the count. I think it has to be a tower or luffer crane that has a cab up top with the operator in it.

I can see the fully assembled crane for Centuria from my place, added it to the count.

crane_guy · #58 Posted **Aug 15, 2010, 5:19 PM**

crane is up at the emergency call center

Bigtime · #59 Posted **Aug 15, 2010, 8:04 PM**

Thanks Crane Guy! I've added it to the list.

Jimby · #60 Posted **Aug 15, 2010, 8:12 PM**

That crane doesn't seem to have a cab on it. Is it operated from the ground? Does it qualify for the list? I'm no expert, but it doesn't seem to be a full fledged tower crane.
