New port development at Fiumicino. This is probably part of a bigger scheme in which a cruise liner port will be built just to the south at the mouth of the Tiber.

I like the simplicity of these cranes, located in Tredigr docks in Cardiff Bay. Not sure what they were being used to build as access was blocked, but there does seem to be alot of development work going on there.

A stunningly beautiful but cold day today.. went out and got groceries on a Friday which i love doing.. no crowds in the store! For the first time I noticed this new housing development behind the Loblaws on Sherbrooke street.. lots of new growth in the city lately which is a good sign. It would seem Montreal, being on an island keepsa lot of its citizens within its boundaries instead of pushing them out to the suburbs like a lot of other North American cities do
Bribie Island development
July 1964
ID: 436411 photographic album
Negative number: C2-5035
"Bribie Island is the smallest and most northerly of three major sand islands forming the coastline sheltering the northern part of Moreton Bay, Queensland, Australia. The others are Moreton Island and North Stradbroke Island. Bribie Island is 34 kilometres (21 miles) long, and 8 kilometres (5.0 miles) at its widest. Archibald Meston believed that the name of the island came from a corruption of a mainland word for it, Boorabee. meaning 'koala bear'.
Bribie Island hugs the coastline and tapers to a long spit at its most northern point near Caloundra, and is separated from the mainland by Pumicestone Passage. The ocean side of the island is somewhat sheltered from prevailing winds by Moreton Island and associated sand banks and has only a small surf break. The lee side is calm, with white sandy beaches in the south.
Most of the island is uninhabited national park (55.8 square kilometres or 21.5 square miles) and forestry plantations. The southern end of the island has been intensively urbanised as part of the Moreton Bay Region, the main suburbs being Bongaree, Woorim, Bellara and Banksia Beach. A bridge from Sandstone Point on the mainland was completed in 1963.
Buckley's Hole, at the southern tip of the island, is an important bird habitat and refuge.
There are many types of wildlife present on the island. Kangaroos, wallabies, emus, various snake species, green tree frogs and dingos can often be seen venturing from the national park into the surrounding suburbs.
Pumicestone Passage, located between the island and the mainland, is a protected marine park that provides habitat for dugongs, turtles and dolphins. There are also extensive mangrove forests in this area. Eucalypt forests, banksias and heathlands are the predominant vegetation elsewhere.
Bribie Island is home to around 350 species of bird. This includes a range of honeyeater species, lorikeets, waterbirds and birds of prey. Flying foxes (also called fruit bats) visit the area, along with several species of small insect-eating bats. Flying foxes are important pollinators and seed dispersers while the insect-eating bats help control mosquito and other insect populations.
Buckley's Hole, at the southern tip of the island, was declared an environmental park in 1992.
The island seems particularly prone to instances of bee swarming.”

Original Caption: New housing development arises near one of the few remaining farm fields in fast growing Orange County. Some 84 percent of the state's residents live within 30 miles of the coast resulting in increased land use pressure. Since November, 1972 regulatory commissions have been charged with determining development within 1,000 yards of the coast. The commissions must submit a report to the legislature by January, 1976, recommending a plan for future coastal development, May 1975

Justine Greening, UK Development Secretary, (centre) addresses the focus event on education at the Supporting Syria and the Region conference.
BACKGROUND
The Supporting Syria and the Region conference took place in London on 4 February 2016.
It brought together world leaders in a bid to raise the money needed to help the millions of people whose lives have been torn apart by the devastating civil war in Syria.
Syria is the world's biggest humanitarian crisis. Billions of dollars in international aid are needed to support people caught up in the conflict.
The UK, Germany, Kuwait, Norway, and the United Nations co-hosted the conference to raise significant new funding to meet the immediate and longer-term needs of those affected.
The conference also set ambitious goals on education and economic opportunities to transform the lives of refugees caught up in the Syrian crisis - and to support the countries hosting them.
This event alone cannot solve all these problems. Ultimately a political solution is necessary to bring the Syrian conflict to an end.

In the background, you can see the original Northwestern Bell tower. It is now crammed with telephone and internet transmission equipment. The tan tower to the right is the Northwestern Bell office building. It has been empty forever as Nortwestern Bell moved to a newer office building downtown. It became Qwest Communications after the Bell Telephone court ordered breakup. Qwest died of bad management and I think some of them went to jail too. Now it is CenturyLink Communications.
Anyway...just as The Highline a few blocks up the street was set to open, NuStyle announced they had purchased this building, which is also on the National Register of Historic Places. Gotta save those examples of mid century bad architecture, with no thought for human usage or enjoyment!
Set to become 290 apartments.
