Contractor Norman Hudson called me on February 18, 2021 to tell me he was in line to get the first dose of the Covid-19 vaccine. He died two days later, at 77 years of age. He thus fulfilled his often-expressed desire never to retire.

Pontcysyllte Aqueduct, Trevor, Wrexham.

This was designed by Thomas Telford and William Jessop, and built by them in 1795 - 1808, and with John Simpson as the Contractor for the stonework and William Hazeldine supplying the cast iron components.

This collaboration resulted in one of the most significant feats of civil engineering during the Industrial revolution.

Contractors working on the new Mississippi River Bridge at Lansing Iowa imploded the center and east spans of the old Black Hawk Bridge on December 19th, 2025, severing the 94-year connection of this classic truss structure. The bridge was originally to remain open while it's replacement was completed, but issues with too much movement of the old bridge while the new was being constructed nearby meant that it was closed a couple years earlier than originally intended.

 

The classic bridge has long been an interesting experience to cross for generations of area residents, and a neat bridge to photograph. Since it's demise was well-publicized, on a recent trip to La Crosse in early December I took the "long way 'round" and got a chance to see it one last time. Conveniently I arrived town right as a CPKC train 883 did - coal loads for the Portage, WI power plant, with the rear DPU seen shoving under the west span. The bridge has been a great prop and occasional photo platform for lots of railroad photographers over the years.

 

Some "drop under" sunlight on a crisp winter morning helped to light up the old bridge nicely. Out on the water, the barge pushing away from the camera is a construction barge, but the small one in the center right coming towards us is the temporary car ferry the DOT is utilizing as a replacement for the bridge. It's free and runs roughly every half hour in each direction - if you are in the area I highly recommend taking a ride across sometime in the next year or so as the new bridge takes shape above it's path. And there aren't many chances to ride on the upper Mississippi River for free!

 

When the bridge was imploded, they left the west span and will remove that with more typical methods because it spans the railroad and is near houses. The new bridge is starting to take shape behind the pier seen in this photo, and will have a similar truss look to the old structure (the result of a big push by the local community that actually influenced the DOT to change the design from a more standard arch bridge type early on in their planning). But since it won't have a deck of open-grate metal you could see down through, nor the suddenly vertical break-over on either side of the main center arch span that gave one a bit of a jolt when driving over it, the new bridge will likely lack a bit of the "character" of the old.

Contractors have begun to clear the rubble, weeds and new grown trees from behind the fences in preparation for restoration on 41 arches to begin.

De Euromast is een uitkijktoren in de Nederlandse stad Rotterdam. Met 185 meter is het een van de hoogste torens van Nederland die open is voor publiek. Door de vorm is de toren goed herkenbaar in de skyline van Rotterdam. De Euromast werd ter gelegenheid van de internationale tuinbouwtentoonstelling Floriade in 1960 door architect Huig Maaskant en aannemer J.P. van Eesteren gebouwd in het Park, vlak bij de ingang van de Maastunnel. Architect Maaskant gebruikte als inspiratie voor het ontwerp de bemasting van een schip. Dit leidde tot de benaming Euromast. Het ontwerp van het restaurant met uitkijkplatform is gebaseerd op het kraaiennest in een scheepsmast van waaruit men kan uitkijken over grote afstanden.

 

The Euromast is an observation tower in the Dutch city of Rotterdam. At 185 meters, it is one of the tallest towers in the Netherlands open to the public. Its shape makes it easily recognizable in the Rotterdam skyline. The Euromast was built in the Park, near the entrance to the Maas Tunnel, by architect Huig Maaskant and contractor J.P. van Eesteren for the Floriade international horticultural exhibition in 1960. Architect Maaskant drew inspiration for the design from the masts of a ship, leading to the name Euromast. The design of the restaurant and observation platform is based on the crow's nest in a ship's mast, from which one can see out over great distances.

Ok, So I've had this Fuji X100F for a couple of weeks now and can't make up my mind if I love it or hate it. On the plus side it's small, mirrorless and inconspicuous, meaning I can get away with a bit more street photography without being glared at!

 

However, the ergonomics of the camera are painful. The grip if far to small, and as a result it's easy to accidentally knock one of the four buttons on the command dial. I've disabled two of them, but it's impossible to disable the "drive" button. As a result today I managed to knock the camera into "filters" mode without realizing it and spent 10 minutes trying to work out what I'd done. Somehow it also switch from raw mode to jpg mode at the same time which I didn't realize until I got home, at which point I gave the camera a stream of four letter words.

Another ruthless killer.

Have a great time guys.Thank you for visit.

Brickell Arch is an office skyscraper in Brickell in Downtown Miami, Florida, United States. It was designed by the architectural firm of Kohn Pedersen Fox Associates PC (KPF). The 505-foot (168 meter), 36-story building is located on the southern end of Brickell Avenue in the Financial District. On April 18, 2012, the AIA's Florida Chapter placed the building on its list of Florida Architecture: 100 Years. 100 Places.

 

Brickell Arch features a concave parabola design on its front glass façade, loosely mimicking the Gateway Arch in St. Louis. One of Miami's common nicknames is "The Gateway to Latin America", which also closely resembles St. Louis's nickname, "The Gateway to the West". It is said to welcome people to the United States as the arch welcomes people to the west.

 

The building is the North American headquarters for the Espírito Santo Bank and contains some Class A office space. A Conrad Hotel as well as some residential units occupy the remaining space. The building opened July 1, 2004, and is located at 1395 Brickell Avenue, less than a block from the Financial District Metromover Station.

 

The building has been featured twice in Burn Notice, once as headquarters for a defense contractor, and again in a skyline shot.

The first building in the 27-acre Miami Worldcenter project has opened as the Caoba apartments is welcoming its new residents.

 

The $4 billion project is transforming the north side of downtown Miami, bringing economic activity and pedestrian traffic to the area. Falcone Group and CIM Group, along with master developer Miami Worldcenter Associates, have completed the 444-unit Caoba, which means mahogany in Spanish, as the tree in what will soon become a dense forest of development.

 

See the gallery and video for a tour of the 44-story Caoba at 698 N.E. 1st Ave.

 

Units in Caoba range from 500 to 1,300 start feet. Rent starts from $1,775 for a studio, $3,000 for a two-bedroom unit, or $4,100 for a three-bedroom unit. The apartments come with stainless steel appliances, both showers and bathtubs, and lots of cabinet storage space in the kitchens. Most of the units have open floor plans.

 

Its 10th floor amenity deck includes a clubroom with a kitchen and ovens, a bar, a game room with billiards and foosball, a large pool deck with cabanas, grilling stations, and a 5,000-square-foot fitness room with a full set of weights and cardio machines. There’s a dog run on the fifth floor.

 

The building is west of American Airlines Arena and east of the Brightline passenger rail station, which takes riders to Fort Lauderdale and West Palm Beach. The developer closed off Northwest 7th Street to traffic and made it a pedestrian pathway, lined by fountains and trees, so people can walk from the train to the arena. There is 20,000 square feet of retail on the ground level, both facing the street and the pedestrian path.

  

“It’s a nice seating environment and kids will love it,” said Nitin Motwani, managing principal of Miami Worldcenter Associates.

 

The architect was Cohen Freedman Encinosa & Associates, while the general contractors was Coastal Tishman Construction. Caoba is managed by Bozzuto.

 

A second phase of Caoba is planned at the opposite end of its parking garage, but that has yet to break ground.

 

“It’s all about creating a great environment where people are comfortable coming down and having fun,” Motwani said.

 

Meanwhile, the 60-story Paramount Miami Worldcenter with 569 condos and a parking structure with 140,000 square feet of retail are currently under construction. Motwani said the condo should be completed in the second quarter. Miami Worldcenter Associates recently hired Miami-based Comras Co. to broker the retail leasing, joining national retail experts the Forbes Co. and Taubman Centers.

It was founded in 1796 by Count Stanisław Szczęsny Potocki, a Polish noble. The city of Uman at that time was part of the Russian Empire. The park is named after his Greek wife Sofia (Zofia Potocka) and was built in 1802, it was a gift of Statinslaw Potocki to his wife on her birthday. The cost of the original park was estimated at roughly 15 million złoty, a fortune by contemporary standards. The main contractor was Ludwik Metzel, a Polish military engineer who imported many rare plants from all around Europe. He employed the local serfs as his main labor force. The land for the park was highly undeveloped with numerous ravines and divided by the Kamianka river. The main composition of the park is located by the very same river with series of artificial basins and ponds (Upper-8 ha, Lower-1.5 ha, and others), waterfalls (the highest one is 14m tall), locks, subterranean river Akhenront (length-224m), fountains etc. The opening ceremony was also honoured by Stanisław Trembecki, who wrote a poem praising the park and its namesake. The park is decorated with a number of sculptures, mostly antique ones, and artificial cliffs, grottoes, and gazebos.

It is one of the world famous garden-park art creations. There are many scenic areas in the park including waterfalls, fountains, ponds and a stone garden. It is one of the most famous examples of late 18th or early 19th century European landscape garden design that has been preserved to the present time.

Contractors were busy constructing a new overpass, an elevator, and an escalator to connect the new Green Line light rail route to FrontRunner commuter rail at North Temple in Salt Lake City, Utah on June 27, 2012. In many ways, the structure of the transfer was far more interesting to view before the frosted glass panels were installed, which hide the angular beam work.

This Left-Hand Drive Scammell Contractor was one of the heavy haulage machines that were active at the Welland (Malvern) Steam and Country Fair in 2023.

Here on an early Saturday morning we have D.L.W Coaches Bova FHD12-370 Futura W9 PSW (102) and Volvo B9R/Caetano Levante CX15 CCL (109) seen parked together the morning after finishing their Friday College contracts and they are spending the weekend chilling until Monday morning where they go back to their standered work. 10/12/16.

Scammell Contractor I spotted sitting around Wingfield. Looks like it was a prime mover, and it's running a Cummins NTA400 under the hood.

This one is still a bit fuzzy, as it was taken in very dark conditions, but I have tried to sharpen it a bit. As it might well be the only picture on t'web of an Ericsway coach bearing the short-lived Carlton identity, I thought it was worth a punt.

 

Originally one of Southdown's mercifully short-lived fleet of Ford R1114 coaches, it passed to the contractor Wimpey in 1979, so its days might have realistically have ended there. But Eric Booth always liked a challenge (and a very cheap coach !), and bought it at auction for peanuts. He got a year or so from it after overhauling it, then sold it to a local dance troupe, and it ended its days almost back home on the south coast, with a swimming club in Bournemouth.
