Otherwise the fluids get viscous, gaskets dry & crack, etc.<br /><br />What is just as revealing is that there's nowhere else for those cranes to <i>go</i>. Somebody's losing money every time the sun rises on that site.<br /><br />Streets of Buckhead is as clear an illustration that you'll ever see of the Austrian theory of the business cycle.

I was actually seeing my dentist yesterday whose office is across the street from SOB and was amazed to see a crane move! I asked if the staff had seen any progress but this was all that they had seen. First movement in months. Last I heard Ben Carter needed an additional $200M to keep the project alive. AIS (Atlanta International School) floated the idea of an International District with Consulates and Embassies, not much on that lately though former Mayor of Atlanta and current "Mayor" of Buckhead Sam Massell gave his approval to the idea. I hope to have news in the next few weeks.<br /><br />Thanks for reading and for the comment.Atlantan99https://www.blogger.com/profile/06115362060612910966noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-579719431387122896.post-8576415790612840722010-04-20T10:57:25.568-04:002010-04-20T10:57:25.568-04:00Speaking of Buckhead, I noticed they had the crane...Speaking of Buckhead, I noticed they had the cranes going at Streets of Buckhead earlier this week. What's the scoop on that? They can't possibly think they're going to be able to make the project work.Sydneynoreply@blogger.com
