Again, Needless Hall extension crane.

There's one on Fallowfield Dr.  Since I don't drive by there I'm not positive.  But I see a crane from the expressway.

We always preferred to refer to it as "Needless Hell".

I was under the impression that the original Science Teaching crane went down and a new one went up for Needless Hall about 30 meters down the road, silly as it sounds.

The white one was always at STC.  It was a yellow one that went up (and down) at Needles Hall.

Tower crane now up at the ION storage and maintenance facility on Dutton Dr.

I drove by there on Saturday afternoon and there are two cranes going up ... unless my glasses were fooling me.


RE: Number of Tower Cranes 2015 - BuildingScout - 01-25-2015

The other one went up last year...


RE: Number of Tower Cranes 2015 - BuildingScout - 03-10-2015

There is a crane now in Sunview Court, north of University Av.


RE: Number of Tower Cranes 2015 - Watdot - 04-01-2015

If the Sunview crane went up March 10th, then this is a new Lester St crane that went up yesterday, March 31st.   Quite the crane density happening now...
