  1. Demo is being handled by "Two men and a truck", unfortunately, they are also doing the old jail, so only 1 man is working with a truck, at night .... this might take awhile ... ...back to your regularly scheduled program
  2. Also, remember that this could actually be considered phase 2, with phase 1 being the Gallatin Pike and Murfreesboro Pike corridors being completed about 2 years ago
  3. Went to Bicentennial Mall for the Note Drop and fireworks and was extremely disappointed. Small crowd, not much of an atmosphere, and the quality of fireworks were a fraction of those of previous years. There were people there for Styx and people there for Keith Urban, and the rest left at 12:02 - when Auld Lang Syne was completed Pros: I parked 5 blocks away, anticipating a "crowd", I should have parked 2 blocks away because parking was easy. Very little traffic. No lines at port-a-potties. Online streaming. Great app. Security was good. Not crowded Cons: Food trucks raping the wallets of innocent victims (expected) and some left early due to lack of business. Note drop seemed "shorter", not sure. Fireworks noticeably smaller, no "atmosphere". Everyone standing on the few sidewalks to avoid the mud Overall Summary: pathetic. Not something to be proud of. I don't get it. They had ~2 million people in Times Square this year, yet our police hasn't figured out how to handle 150k on Lower Broadway
  4. I walked up to the top today. Looks soooooooo much better now. Unfortunately, there are still enough trees blocking the downtown view to prevent any good photo opportunities. Good views of Music Row roundabout area though
  5. Calgary is very much underrated. Great transit, truly international airport, ....
  6. Sobro/downtown Gulch/mid-town **This is per request. I visited this site a few years ago and was not impressed. The view has changed!!
  7. No, the building was designed to compliment the Egyptian motif of the Downtown Presbyterian Church across the street
  8. I think my pic is better than the Science Center cam! (But I am bias! haha)
  9. They have less than 25% employees that they did years ago. Thanks to the Internet and modernization
  10. Bridgestone Tower is now taller than the neighboring Encore. 505 CST in this pic , also
