[Christopher]

Couldn’t grab a picture while I was driving, but there is a crane base setup on the east side of the History Museum along Wilmington St.

crane base setup

For people who like crane porn. It’s a grower, not a shower.

It does have impressive girth, though!

It’s cool seeing the renovation at this stage.

I didn’t realize the scope of this renovation. This place is completely gutted.

Hot take: This might be one of the coolest buildings in Raleigh

It’s just its skeleton!

They closed Wilmington St today to raise the crane:

Beat me to it but here’s a sunrise to make up for my tardiness.

Here are a few from Sunday afternoon as I was leaving Oakwood.

Had to walk over and see where that crane was standing. My favorite state museum.

I wonder what will become of all the facing - is it granite?

[GucciLittlePig]

I believe it’s being upcycled as the food source for the upcoming Granite Grill.

Construction worker falls in downtown Raleigh at NC Museum of History site

Wow. Article says no serious injuries. Thank goodness. I am actually surprised we don’t have more serious stuff considering how much construction we have going on. This is a good thing that we don’t.
