Doubtful. Just be patient and enjoy the process.

5 dollars down, 5 dollars a game. Win team takes all. I love bocce ball. Those have got be planters right? I have no idea why they would start the park this early though. Unless its some water supply system that affects the parking garage below?

Planters of the original park.

Looks more slender than I was anticipating

LouisVanDerWright · #**1178** Posted **Feb 6, 2017, 4:13 PM**

So I guess this one isn't going to have two cranes?

And I agree, very slender, going to look even more slender when it's 800'+ tall.

SamInTheLoop · #**1179** Posted **Feb 6, 2017, 4:31 PM**

^ Yeah - I was always perplexed as to why this one would even require two cranes....certainly it doesn't for the tower itself.....

Northwest · #**1180** Posted **Feb 6, 2017, 4:58 PM**

^^Someone mentioned a few pages back that the heavy precast cladding requires a large amount of crane hook time, justifying the second crane.
It will be erected once its time for the precast panels, but its too early at this point and there is no reason to install an expensive crane until it is really needed. Only the base for it was prepared during foundation work. It probably will also be helpful for the primary crane to be jumped a few more times to help assemble the secondary.
