FOLLOWUP: West Seattle now craneless

Thanks to Al for the photo taken while a mobile crane was being used today to dismantle the tower crane at the Luna Apartments/PCC Community Markets (WSB sponsor) project site at 2749 California SW. The crane was up for a little more than a year; its removal means West Seattle has no current projects using tower cranes. We don’t know what time the removal was finished, as we’ve been covering other events today/tonight, but we just went through the area and noted that California SW is fully open again. As for when the new PCC will open, when last we checked, the estimate was “fourth quarter” of this year.

    And happily not on any TV news broadcast!

    I wonder how many people showed up expecting a show, only to learn how long and drawn out the process is. Some of the easiest money I ever done made as a truck driver, hauling the parts.

      Lots and lots of ‘hurry up and wait’.

        And if Ness is there, donuts, coffee and sometimes pizza! Good times.

    I am happy to see this gone. I thought it looked precarious, even before the deadly crane crash downtown.

    The best thing is that we are one milestone closer to getting our PCC back.

    No more cranes, but we still got a turkey!

    Bets on which will open first, PCC or Whole Foods?

Sorry, comment time is over.
