The Crane is Gone!

[Figment82]

Yes, I'm starting yet another thread in regards to the wand. But I felt this news warranted such an occassion. You see, as of tonight, SEE is now wand-less AND crane-less! The crane was removed earlier tonight, and, as I was told, the star supports are to be removed from inside SSE. I'm not sure how that works exactly, but the crane has left the premises.

If you give me a few moments, I can present you with the first ever, post-wand, post-crane photo of SSE!

LOL I forgot my question! Did they take down the construction walls when the crane left?

Do you mean taken down temporarily to let the crane out, or permanently? Permanently, I would say not a chance, as there is a lot of equipment and such set up in the queue area (it's not a pretty picture in there). As for temporarily, I was not at the location when the crane was leaving, so I can't answer how it was done, but the walls had to be removed to let it out.

Yes, I'm starting yet another thread in regards to the wand.

And totally warranted too! We are so close now... though the star supports are a lot less obvious on their own. Thanks for the update.

Welcome back, Spaceship Earth

Great pic, i fugured they would take the supports out from inside. It is also probably safer that way also.
