Giant Crane Invades the Downtown Mall!

I think I watched the construction of this crane for almost an hour a few days ago.  Coolest thing to happen to Charlottesville in a long time. Isn’t this the biggest object in Charlottesville, ever?

I put a slideshow after the break.

    The crane is being installed to speed the delivery of Everyone’s Favorite Hot Dog(TM).

    Danpri had every right to fire him. I took over his job. I am a woman – so I do it better.

    Those pictures are very, very cool. Thanks for posting them. I’m bitterly jealous that I didn’t see it myself. That orange crane is MONSTROUS.

    And the whole thing has a faint air of a particularly large ride being assembled at a midway, like the Albemarle County Fair.
