It took out part of an apartment building under construction and caused closure of one street.

Maybe some of TPTB from NOLA can get second jobs advising them on what to do.

Can’t call Teedy for advice. Her retarded arse is in South Korea. If we are lucky Kim Jung Un will take her disgusting arse out.

She went to Korea because she heard it had a soul train

I was watching the local ATL news the next morning and they had a segment on high rise cranes. To my disbelief, there are currently 39 cranes erected in downtown Atlanta.

That means there are 39 high rise buildings going up in downtown Atlanta this year. That is friggin crazy to me that there is that much development happening in Downtown/Midtown Atlanta

Been non stop development here since about 2014. No signs of slowing down either. Most if it is in Midtown and NE intown neighborhoods. Downtown isn’t seeing much other than becoming a homeless shelter.

A lot more coming. There are 3 more towers coming at the 760 Ralph McGill site. Another one at Cypress & 7th. There is so much infill space still available. A ton in schematic design phase.

The one yesterday was a Luffer crane on a Balfour Beatty project.
