Because money doesn’t grow on trees and that would have costed a ton. It’s a piece by piece build in phases and everything costs money. It’s not like the whole concrete would be removed. Just sections.

Well then, start the fundraising! A couple hundred million should do it. Construction costs are up about 40% since two years ago.

Doing ground work for the cranes. Cranes aren’t there yet I don’t think.

Once the cranes are up, guessing this is a 1-to-2 day job?

I'm surprised building a pad for a crane, bringing the crane in, erecting it, and then repairing where the pad was built is a cheaper option than using a helicopter to lift the letters into place.

Using a helicopter to lift the letters into place? Seems incredibly difficult and unsafe for no reason

But it would look super-cool in an action movie!

It is what Schiano would do if he was the project manager. Too bad he isn’t qualified to do the job. Or any other job for that matter.

Aerial cranes are utilized all the time for lifts in urban areas. In addition, how cool would that be.

Helicopters trim trees with chainsaws next to power lines.

And it's back!!

Bet it's not Walt. (edit) The job is not big enough.

No, it is not Walt. I bet it is there to put up the new JMA sign on the west side of the crown truss. Sounds like it will be in place soon...

Great job on painting that gradient. Some true artist there. Extremely hard thing to do and replicate, why you don't see a lot of gradients used for corporate logos.

 

[upperdeck]

Whats the undo on that.. you prime it up again and start over?

Surprised they can paint like that and not get covered in the mist without wearing some kind of coveralls

 

[sutomcat]

Assume this is part of the JMA logo going up on the western side of the crown truss.

If this is any indication, that logo is going to be huge. I knew it was going to be big but seeing this really brings it home.

This is what the logo looks like...

Is this Son (or Daughter) of Walt?!?!?!

Outstanding to keep it in the family!!

EDIT - I forgot about Skyler, too! This new crane should be either Walt Jr. or Holly!!

Now if they can dress up the outside to get rid of the prison wall look

My eyes go straight to the roof these days. Especially for night games when it’s lit up.
