^Still scaffolding. I don't know what's taking them so long...Maybe it takes longer, I don't know. It's going to look so different when all the scaffolding comes off.

Took a nice late November stroll around Downtown today:

FANTASTIC PICS, Alxx611. I'm gonna have to go to Mobile sometime and see this awesome looking building and city for myself.

Man, what a tour! That really is a massive amount of scaffolding on RSA, it's got to be close to finished up there. I haven't been downtown since they put in the new containers cranes at the Docks. They look great and will def. catch the eye coming across the Bayway. Thanks for the pics.

Very nice pics, thanks.

I'll just show the skyline shots I took from the industrial yards of Blakeley Island. The first photo was taken from a viaduct on Bay Bridge Road in nearby Prichard.

Okay, I decided to wade across to Cooper Riverside Park

NIce. the first one looks really good. You can see more of the skyline from the north than anywhere else.

Thanks so much for all the pics! It makes me miss Mobile terribly.

Great pics!

Christmas Parade:

Santa drving on Highway 90.

The scene. The marine next to we wouldn't stop spitting dip the whole time

How adorable is Sam Jones

My older sister, the beautiful trail maid in blue

The spire is gradually gaining detail and color

The parking deck looks nicer than I thought it would

People should seriously photograph downtown from the Northwest more often

Is this not the most beautiful building in Mobile?

Great photos ! I hope to visit relatives in Mobile in the next week or two.
With the RSA Tower , the massive racetrack project (probably the single biggest tourism-related investment in state history) , and the assorted industrial gains, Mobile has more going on now than at any time I can recall.

I agree. I'm only 21, but this is probably the most I've seen yet. So many projects and so little space. 2010 will definitely be a year to look forward to.

I'm a bit greedy, so I still want to see substantial industrial development at the site of the former International Paper Company.

elb401 · #**1037** Posted **Dec 19, 2006, 1:35 PM**

a steel plant is looking at that site. The port athority said that it is perfert for the site.

nick1982 · #**1038** Posted **Dec 19, 2006, 4:22 PM**

^Excellent, that means infrastructure improvements all around the site. I'd like to see Paper Mill Road expanded into a five lane arterial.

Ex-Ithacan · #**1039** Posted **Dec 19, 2006, 4:24 PM**

RSA sure does pop out at ya from the skyline shots. Amazing addition for Mobile, congrats.

Blazer85 · #**1040** Posted **Dec 20, 2006, 1:10 AM**

Great pics of the RSA Tower.

Any news on the RSA-like crown expected to be put on another of Mobile's buildings?
