So - they half-finished putting the crane up on this work site last week, left it half-assembled for a week, and today they appear to be taking the entire crane down. I'm confused...
Cranes are inspected as they go up. It seems they encountered a problem as it was being assembled and the process stopped. They'll get looking for another crane now of course.
Crane is up. It's the same one that they got half up then took down before - but in between they spent a couple weeks tearing up the cement pad they'd poured and putting in another, much larger one.
