Glad the rescue went smoothly - gotta give props to these fire fighters.
I wonder what construction site it was?

This is where the count now sits at. I think Dawson Landing Age Care might not have a crane anymore, but can't find anything on it, so I'm going to leave it for a few more months.

Arts Commons expansion iirc

Crane bases at Lincoln and Gryphon. The count is about to go back up.

Lots of smaller projects with cranes. Might hit 40???

There's a baby crane at Monty 44, not sure if you include them in your count.

IIRC, the consensus was if the crane was mounted in concrete it would be considered part of the crane count, even though this functions much the same as a standard tower crane.
