Crane Watch is in a constant state of flux, as it should be.
The vast majority of the projects we started with in 2017 when we launched the interactive map of the region’s largest ongoing construction projects have been completed, and replaced with, essentially, an entirely new set.
All but two of the projects in the gallery above, the top 10 largest projects underway right now (plus one bonus), are relatively recent additions.
