Four photos. One and two - the external construction hoist has now been set up on the west side of the building.
Third photo - a small Western Mechanical gantry hoist has been set up at the north end of the new building. First time I have seen a gantry hoist used for heavy lifts in a commercial office building build. If the name Western Mechanical is familiar - they supplied the lift equipment for placement of the Davenport Diamond Grade Separation overhead sections. Also, years ago, Western Mechanical handled the rebuild of the locomotive turntable that was reinstalled at Roundhouse Park.
Final photo is a general overview of Portland Commons project from this afternoon.
