    Its called a jib (if its a tower crane), not a boom And since they don't like to build jibs in the air one section at a time, they normally put the entire jib together on the ground and install it in one lift, as seen in the pictures above. A tower crane isn't strong enough to fly the entire jib to the top of another tower crane, much less the counterweights, it would be out of chart.

    Sorry guys, my friend got the job as the crane op on this project. He says theyre just expanding the parking garage, making it even more massive. I think they just want to generate more parking revenue.

    Wait, so all this will ever be is a parking garage? Or will "phase 2" be a tower?

    I'm generally very anti-government, anti-regulation, anti-zoning, anti-state, what have you......but.....is there any clever way the city could "force" these crappy dollar stores and weave stores out of those retail slots? Perhaps by proxy, or some sort of new, bogus "regulation?"

    Also to the person that asked about a bike rack, there is one, and you will receive a discount for riding your bike there!

    "In pre-development", I'm reading that as this is not an existing project or an addition to an existing project, correct?

    Go at night when the cranes aren't working, there's nothing stopping you from climbing that ladder all the way to the top, except maybe some paul blart on the ground, but most of the time it's pretty easy.Edit: I am not serious and am not suggesting that you do anything illegal that may result in incarceration, physical harm or even death.
