Also, boooo to whoever just hard deleted the old sheet.
Thanks for doing that. I went to add a couple of new cranes going up, and found the 'Dead' message. I assumed it had somehow lapsed rather than being deleted - I will continue to update Central Area projects occasionally, once you're back in business.

The DEAD in all caps and weird blood red text seemed kinda vindictive.

I don't think that is the standard message for a sheets document that was deleted, especially since there were still artifacts of the old spreadsheet there.

Seems like someone wanted to burn it down on their way out, which is needless to say pretty weird for a crowdsourced construction crane tracker. Hardly the kind of thing that should be eliciting strong emotions.

Anyway here's the link to the new sheet:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1...RczwaT9D9YWv_BFqcVQ-_n0/edit?usp=sharing

I've added a green note to the tabs that are rebuilt, the ones without are either in-progress or have not been started.

Thank you for restoring the count. I originally created the original one but having it as a open doc giving access to to many was its down fall. Leftcoaster please keep it under strict controls to ensure this latest one lives on.

Perhaps a bitter bankrupt developer?

Seems more likely a target for a NIMBY.
