Activity in the Broderick Tower

Walking by this afternoon and there were 4 men walking in with big rolls of what appeared to be blue prints

By using the El Dorado Atmospheric and Oceanic temperatures thermal map. I caculated the contrary direction where the polar jet stream is going and it didn't look pretty.

Not trying to be a pain in the ass, Andy, but what is it, about the Broderick Tower activity, that is supposed to be interesting? What's the "story inside the story" on this bit?

My read is that it's making fun of all the DY threads asking when the condos will be ready.

As well as http://www.brodericktower.com pretending development is right around the corner.

I think this thread is more effective in total rather than any one post or set of photos. I have no beef with any indiviudal shown here but seeing them together as a series is disgusting.

Full disclosure: I snuck up there almost ten years ago to explore. From that perspective it was pretty cool. Seeing them from my balcony now reminds me it's been ten years and the only thing that's changed is the building next door that collasped.

The wind has been whipping this piece of copper on the Broderick Tower all afternoon. It can't be much longer before it falls.

Time to put Sam Bernstein on the speed-dial and go hang out downwind from the Broderick Tower.

It's still there. I can't believe it survived the night.

All gone. I still don't understand how that AC unit has hung in there all these years.
