They're fixed cranes with site built foundations, which are very typical in large construction jobs. There was a thread last month showing the pictures of the foundations.

They are called tower cranes. They are positioned so that their tips overlap. Ensuring crane coverage for the entire site. I haven't seen the plans, but they usually build the structure around them. Break them down and pull then out at the end. The hole left will be filled in afterwards. Concrete etc...
