They've shut down for the day. Replacement crane assembly will continue tomorrow. 113 St remains closed north of 100 Ave for about 70m.

The replacement cab has been installed. Crew boss thinks they will be done today. A few other photos b/c I was bored!

Rather than being a two day road closure, it ended up being a 3.5 day closure - well, was open by about noon on the 4th day.
Back in business though.

Kinda surprised they even bothered installing a new tower crane. They've only got five more stick built floors to go and they have plenty of laydown space. Why not opt for one of those self erecting cranes like the one on the Abbey Park job?
Maybe they got this green one real cheap. Frankly it looks like it's from Soviet-era Belarus...

Love to colour/look. I wonder if it was brought to the area for this and future projects?

It was brought in because the previous crane extended too far over the neighbour's property and Westrich Pacific thought they wouldn't notice, and then tried to pretend that the neighbour had signed off on it.

^it does not work like that. Crane swing and air rights are formally considered and approved.

Yeah, and they exceeded their air rights by about 6m resulting in a stop work order after the neighbour called them on it.

While I respect limitations, endeavour to assist is something foundational to ensure things function.

Cooperation does go two ways. And this was entirely a problem of their own making.
