SoWA pictures

Hello everyone!

I took these pics late this afternoon while out with my girlfriend.

I apologize: the camera was not on "auto" so the color came out as though I had used a blue filter. Just pretend you are looking at some European industrial art

The Meriwether buildings:


OHSU, looking north:




This is the John Ross...at last, it emerges from the ground!




More Meriwether:




OHSU viewed from the north (looking south):


Tram landing being built:


OHSU viewed from the south (looking north):


Enjoy!

Wow, I knew it was cloudy in the Northwest, but I didn't know the skies were actually blue in Portland.

I was down at the discovery center a couple weeks ago and I think they said they weren't going to start removing the storage center until the summer.

I know! I was driving to work the morning that picture was taken and was thinking "man I wish I had a camera!" Well, apparently someone else did. Good thing!

The John Ross is coming along pretty quickly!! Seems like all of a sudden it shot out of the ground.

That crane is going to have to shoot up pretty quick. I saw them working on Saturday and Presidents Day (I wasn't in the area on Sunday) but they are working on this pretty much every day from what I can tell.
