^^ I miss that view! So very broad

So with construction wrapping up soon, what is happening with the north side? Are they still putting in that arch and walkway?

I would imagine that that will come with the park rejuvenation.

I really like that park space in there, I'm looking forward to it being an enjoyable space to be again. Only basic upkeep has been spent on it in the past few years, presumably because of the redesign coming so it's looking a little unloved. I still hold hope that a deal is worked out with GWL to integrate the two separate spaces more seamlessly.

I used to live at the Liberties, and I really loved that park, even though it was a wee bit on the seedy side. I always thought it would be a real treasure of a spot if it were cleaned up and maintained. Fingers crossed that the new design doesn't wreck it.

It's like construction alley!

As the building is coming into fruition, I must say it's looking pretty good the higher up it goes!

The crane is coming down today.

Gorgeous photo. Mine is from today, but nothing special, that's for sure.

That's weird, most of the crane was down yesterday, I know what I saw. WTF?!

I checked the webcam right after your post and wondered what you were smoking.

I guess the position of the jib and where the sun was at about 4:30 made it appear that it was being disassembled. Anyway, sorry for the trouble!

The hot smoggy air makes far away things look unsharp, but this came out well enough. Maybe a CPL would help?
