Construction Update Master Thread

[meow meow]

these pictures make me realize how much i miss weekly mhk construction pics 

[cfbandyman]

Overall, I get pretty excited thinking about all the construction that is happening or will be happening soon. Engineering Building, East and West Old Stadium, NEZ, College of Business Building, NBAF, Bluemont Hotel, Wefald Hall, MHK airport, just finished Ice Hall, will be doing the Union and hopefully Seaton Hall upgrade soon, did I forget anything this list is getting long...

i think it will be approximately 25% ready by that time. (professional opinion)

it's pretty cray cray how close the bluemont hotel is to the street. i set the o/u at seven months before a car hops the curb and hits it.

I wonder if they have bollards they plan to put along the length of sidewalk to help prevent that.

they should have something but then how are people going to walk? oh hey there bluemonth hotel and street, let me introduce you to pickle.

Depends on what the code for sidewalk easement is, most sidewalks are 48-60" (I think, not an expert on it) can't tell from the photos but there may be room. Bollards are only about 8" in diameter, so idk, probably would be a tight space if they add them, but who knows maybe they want a car to crash through it. You're a cop how many cars have crashed have you found hopping curbs in Manhattan in the first place.

Is there an approx completion date on this thing? I can't find anything online.

[GoodForAnother]

a bollard can protect against a car, but can it stop a pool ball thrown by bill walker?  guess the b-mont didn't think this through.
