The third is looking pretty tall so far, the cab and top still have to go up. I think height wise the apartment building is the tallest of the three, so it would make sense for this to be the tallest crane. I have some photos I will post later today or tomorrow.

Very cool. Can't wait for spring when this project really starts to show it's size.

Looks like the third and first crane will be the same height. Here are a bunch from today by me:

I don't post a lot but this development is really exciting! I can't wait to see it reach some height!

hoser111 · #**494** Posted **Dec 18, 2012, 2:24 AM**

Pretty impressive given that this went from proposal to approval to demolition to development and 3 cranes on site in a little over 1 year.

Here is a picture I took from my office on the 5th floor of the Maritime Centre. Please mind the extremely dirty windows.

I was downtown last evening before the rain started up, but the wind was really cranking. All three cranes were weather-vaning together. Looked pretty cool from my vantage point with the three lined up overhead. Its the first time I've seen that with these ones. Does anyone know if they purposefully take them out of gear when high winds are expected, or are they free to spin all the time? Usually when I see them after hours they are each pointing different directions, willy-nilly.
