For the curious assembling a Crane

After months of levelling and releveling the foundations the builders at the site on the corner of Pretoria Parade and Pacific highway finally set up a crane.

If you were at work and have been wondering how they get a crane into the site Yes they do assemble it in sections using another crane.

the bike shop site

Does anyone know what's going on at the old bike shop site?

Corner of Pound road and Pacific highway?

This shop and the building next to it have now been repainted a hideous shade of dark brown. Werent they both supposedly to be torn down for new units and shops?

Also I see lights on after dark in the basement of the bike shop?

what's going on? anyone know?

These flowers are quite common and often seed outside gardens.
There's a planting near the rail and more in front of Tafe too!
