Big Crane Moves Concrete Panels into Place

Nearly all of the concrete panels are now installed. At 33,000 pounds apiece, the panels have been moved into place with the help of a 660-ton crane (same weight as 94 large African elephants).




An earlier photo shows the size of the crane, which extends to a height of 200 feet — which is taller than the Leaning Tower of Pisa and Cinderella's Castle at Walt Disney World.


Starting the week of Sept. 25:

  • the second phase of steel erection
  • the first phase of roofing
  • masonry cladding
