Crane Removal
The tower crane will be removed this weekend, beginning Friday.
Friday, September 6 – The mobile crane that will be used to lower sections of the in-place tower crane, will be driven into the parking lot on the west side of the tower. This mobile crane is put together in pieces on site, 6-tractor trailers carrying pieces for the mobile crane – this will take approximately 8 hours.
Saturday, September 7 – The take down of the tower crane will get underway, using the mobile crane. The tower crane will be removed in pieces and loaded onto tractor trailers – roughly 8 trailers. Following that, crews will pour concrete on the high roof where the tower crane was protruding through. The mobile crane will be used to bring the concrete to the top of the building. If there is enough time remaining after the concrete is poured, crews will dismantle the mobile crane.
Sunday, September 8 – If there is not enough time on Saturday to dismantle the mobile crane, this work will be done on Sunday.
