    I enjoy seeing the photos, links and videos: not an issue for me. I will defer to the other mods/admin if they want to do something - but, NYB is providing valuable content that adds to the thread. iMHO

    I think NYBOY's photos are great and so are his videos.

    I'm borrowing someone's diagram (from Jan 30th) to help show how far they are from "topping out". The beam collapse last week has only added to the delay. Mid-May is wildly inaccurate.

    His content is not an issue with me. My point (that was rapidly deleted from this thread) is that he can edit a previous post from the same day, or that still appears on the most recent page, to include further videos etc. There is no need to start a fresh post every single time he wishes to include additional content.

    Beam collapse? Do tell more, I hadn't heard of this!

    Steel being hoisted up came loose and crashed on the flatbed truck below. I'm guessing one of those rigging specialists is going into forced re-training at the very least

    Correct, but it shut down all cranes at WTC for a couple of days.

    Still, yikes. I took crane training a few years ago, and they taught basic rigging. That's pretty scary stuff.
