Who will erect a crane 1st?

ATLMidcity · #1 Posted **Sep 23, 2021, 3:14 AM**

Midtown has several residential towers under construction at the moment. Some are nearly completed, and the cranes will be coming down soon.

There are 5 towers that have broken ground, but have not erected a crane as of yet.

So, the question is: which of the 5 residential towers under construction will erect a crane first - not just the base - but a completely operational crane?

This poll is in "real time" because we will know the true winner soon. Choose wisely...

OOPS, THAT'S 15TH & WEST PEACHTREE streets.

Abercrombie and Spring site is completely cleared and they're drilling caissons. Crane should be coming very soon!

You forgot to put Opus on there.

Got to be one of the student dorms - they've got the tightest timeline

Can you put pics in the OP? Not very familiar with the physical address.

A red crane base has been installed at W. Peachtree and 15th streets. My choice is off to a good start... but who knows

1382 Peachtree has had a base for weeks now, which is the reason I didn't include it in the poll - thinking it would be fully assembled by now.

Cranes base in place for Peachtree Place and Spring (The Hub) also
My vote was for 15th and WPeachtree as well..

Not Midtown, though the crane base for Alexan O4W is also in place.

jayden · #10 Posted **Sep 27, 2021, 12:24 AM**

Webcams for The Hub, 1382 Peachtree, and Hanover.

Is that too much to ask?

Crane for spring and Peachtree pl going up today

ATLMidcity · #12 Posted **Sep 28, 2021, 4:05 PM**

I checked out all of the sites yesterday during my bike ride. The Hub (Peachtree Place & Spring) and the W. Peachtree & 15th sites both had a red base. However, the Hub's base was sealed in concrete, while the 15th street base was affixed to a "rebar bed of steel" but no concrete had been poured.

All other sites were just turning dirt.

The Hub at Spring & Peachtree Place.

Lincoln Venture's site is in the background and the Hub is in the foreground.

West Peachtree & 15th St.

Peachtree & 17th Streets NOT PART OF THE POLL

Looks like the Hub won first place...

I suppose the race for second will be between 1382 Peachtree and W. Peachtree and 15th.

Crane is up at 1230 W Peachtree (@ 15th) Hanover

ATLMidcity · #17 Posted **Oct 18, 2021, 3:28 AM**

The 1st place winner is The Hub at Spring & Peachtree Place.
The 2nd place winner is Hanover at 15th & W. Peachtree Street.
And the honorable mention goes to 17th & Peachtree. WTF is going on?

jayden · #18 Posted **Oct 19, 2021, 1:01 PM**

They're now installing a second crane at the Hub.

The 3rd place winner is 859 Spring & Abercombie (Lincoln Ventures), and the 4th place winner is the residential tower going up at 10th and Spring Street.

I wonder how long it'll be before the tower(s) across from 10th & Spring erects a crane.

Libertarian · #20 Posted **Jan 8, 2022, 12:46 AM**

The Hub is at Peachtree Center
