They added an anchor and looks ready to be raised but when I was there (until 12:50pm) they were doing the concrete thing.

Great videos!

One thing I appreciate is the slow panning and the ability to take my time to look at details without worrying about somebody coming up behind me or traffic or rain or sun in my eyes or whatever.
