The after shot.
I took tons of pictures of the beach, boardwalk and moved tower. Will post them when my Internet returns. For how, take this.
Pre-evacuation update: it just started raining and the workers are still milling about. Most traces of the event are gone except the pink Roxy house.
Also, my area is under mandatory evacuation, yet my building is still completely full. Hmm.
NIGHT TIME UPDATE
Deconstruction continues. They’ve been out there all day and they’ve got nearly everything down. After Sunday they’ll have just four days to put it back up again. Sounds like they’re going to be here for a while.
Construction status: disassembled.
Workers were out all night taking apart tents, rigging and scaffolding and strapping things down. Here’s hoping they’re getting overtime… it’s going to be a rush to put it all back together in time.
Arrive home early to the skeleton of another huge tent, this time on the north side of the boardwalk. Getting closer…
Lots of staging area went up over the weekend, and the trailers in the distance are multiplying. Also in this picture: the last wisps of sunrise over Long Beach.
Weekly reminder: Like this view? It could be yours!
The workers are out in force today and oh snap I didn’t realize it was fair day on the boardwalk! Waking up to gyros and fried dough across the street = boss.
and then BAM giant tent
Clouds as plentiful as the swarm of new trailers off in the distance. Looks like construction ramps up today!
Work is halted due to a lake appearing in the middle of the construction grounds. You can see more flooring, including some extending outward into the beach, as well the beginnings of some other tents and buildings.
Underneath the white awning in the center are some giant letters: R, O & X are the only ones we can see from outside. Sounds like Roxy will get some prime space.
