I think it actually makes sense to have buildings there, if "Area 72" is supposed to be a secret research base. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kissfan4 Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 Not sure if anyone is interested, but i like looking at this stuff, here is everything you could want to know about the large crawler crane, as well as the truck mounted crane currently in the parking lot. https://www.sterettcrane.com/pdf/Truck Cranes/Sterett-LTM-1500-164ft.pdf https://www.sterettcrane.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/SKM_C284e16020103080.pdf 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maverick44 Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 They are starting to connect the next supports together on the ground. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LovinMeSomeBanshee Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 I'm guessing the supports laying on the ground as is are not complete. I'm guessing both legs will each have an additional section bolted on to make them the correct height. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LovinMeSomeBanshee Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 I'm imagining work is about to become fast and furious this week. They don't want those cranes on-site any longer than they have to be because they're super expensive. I have a feeling the next week or two will be ridiculous in how much progress is made. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sixohdieselrage Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 It's pretty rediculous how some media outlets can do that, but not others. Like, if it were Kentucky Kingdom, some of us would be able to go. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
