 While moving the crane one of the crew broke the water pipe. There was so much water gushing down the street. Luckily the guy was able to shut it off. The property was tight for maneuvering.

 I couldn't climb up the ladder any further because of my fear of unsecured ladders but the view is spectacular.

 Very quickly they added another wall.
