It doesn't look like much now, but crews will soon be excavating tons of dirt to build a pontoon casting basin at this location. Here we'll be building the concrete pontoons that will carry a new SR 520 bridge across Lake Washington.

It's well traveled during the winter by skiers and snowboarders and in the summer by hikers and photographers. SR 542 between Nooksack River and the Artist Point gate will get a new surface in 2018 during this Northwest Washington resurfacing project.
The Central Artery/Tunnel Project, nicknamed the Big Dig, was a megaproject in Boston that rerouted the Central Artery (Interstate 93) - the chief highway through the heart of the city - into a 3.5-mile (5.6 km) tunnel. The project also included the construction of the Ted Williams Tunnel (extending Interstate 90 to Logan International Airport), the Leonard P. Zakim Bunker Hill Memorial Bridge over the Charles River, and the Rose Kennedy Greenway in the space vacated by the previous I-93 elevated roadway. The construction work began in 1991 and was scheduled to be completed in 1998; it wasn’t finished until 2006. The Big Dig was the most expensive highway project in the U.S. and was plagued by escalating costs, scheduling overruns, leaks, design flaws, charges of poor execution and use of substandard materials, criminal arrests and one death.
“These are the NASA Mississippi Test Facility’s three test stands now under construction. The first structure, in the foreground, is one of the two S-II stands being built. The center stand is the second S-II test stand, now virtually complete. The S-II-T, all systems model of the S-II, second stage of the Saturn V space vehicle, can be seen in the stand. At far left in the background, the S-IC dual test towers rise. Its finished height will be 407 feet. The S-IC test stand is destined to be Mississippi’s tallest structure.”
The foreground test stand was designated "A1", the center one was the A2 Test Stand, and the far left/background was the B1/B2 Test Stand.
I wonder what the smoke plume is due to.

Aug 6 2017 - At the end (or start) of the new Grand urban entrance the city is building into downtown.. it will run for several blocks in Barlecona's La Ramble style fitted between each lane of the boulevard.. a nice view of some of downtown's newest skyscrapers from here which should look awesome at night. The boulevard doesn't look like much yet but soon it should take shape.

The Victoria Memorial, located in Kolkata, India is a memorial of Queen Victoria of the United Kingdom who also carried the title of Empress of India. It currently serves as a museum and a tourist attraction.
The memorial was designed by Sir William Emerson in an architectural style similar to Belfast City Hall. Earlier asked to design the building in the Italian Renaissance style, Emerson was against the exclusive use of European styles and used Indo-Saracenic style, incorporating Mughal elements in the structure. Vincent Esch was the superintending architect while Lord Redesdale and Sir David Prain designed the gardens. The work of construction was entrusted to Messrs Martin & Co. of Calcutta.
Built between 1906 and 1921, it is a majestic white marble building at the southern end of the Maidan and surrounded by a sprawling garden. A black bronze Angel of Victory, holding a bugle in her hand was placed at the apex of the dome above the Memorial. It is fixed to its pedestal with ball bearings and acts as a weathercock when the wind is strong enough. Mr. A. C. Mitra, Bengal Engineering and Science University-alumnus, was Engineer-in-Charge in the construction project of the Victoria.

This is a fascinating use of ingenuity. The Silva cell is a stack of up to 3 layers of a pizza-box-lid-holder-style plastic frames. The resulting "cells" are filled up with loos-ish soil/dirt and then topped with a pavement of various kinds. The pavement can, presumably, be impermeable.
The resulting structure is strong enough to bear traffic loads but able to absorb rain runoff from adjacent areas. I'm guessing it also utilizes a kind of French drain/drain tile (perforated tube in this case) to eliminate excess water.
Good for trees adjacent to the site. Their website is kinda cool too.

It provides local access, as well as a route across the Cascades and into North Cascade National Park typically during the spring through fall seasons.

Aug 6 2017 - It doesn't look like much now but Autoroute 10 used to be an ugly elevated stretch of highway heading towards Nun's Island.. it's been torn down and is being transformed into a grand urban boulevard styled on La Rambla in Barcelona. A grand entrance to the city. It stretched for several blocks and will be a park with artwork, sculptures, a playground for children and public stalls with events.. sounds like a good idea. It's quite far from downtown though but with Griffin town on the left and Place Bonaventure behind me there should be enough people to come here. If it even comes close to the beauty of La Rambla it will be incredible.

SR 20 from the Coupeville ferry terminal to SR 525/East Race Road in Island County is part of the 2018 resurfacing project. Whidbey Island travelers who use this route or take it to get to or from the ferry terminal should be prepared for delays of at least 30 minutes while crews work on this nearly 4 mile stretch.
The refurbished stator for turbine five at Snoqualmie Falls Plant 1 is carefully lowered into the cavity on February 15, 2013.
The "stator" is the stationary component of a turbine, while the rotor is what rotates when water passes through it.
Because of extremely tight clearances around the stator, crews used ropes to stabilize it.
