    Thanks.  That's going to be a big hole.  Although I'm still in construction, I haven't been around those big projects in 5+ years.  Still fascinated by them, though.

    And, after spending over a decade in the heavy equipment industry, I'm pretty well-versed with the majority of equipment out there, but I drove by the site today and I have no idea what the big crawler with the Princess Leia coils above the cab is.  Any ideas?

    That is a hydromill that will excavate the slurry walls. This video explains the process the best:

    This is the correct answer.  I believe that's an Oscar Renda Contracting (now Southland Holdings) logo on the bore hole drilling machine.  I'll be curious to see how deep they are going.

    I saw Howell Crane starting assembly today on a big lattice crawler crane as well.  That may be used for piles given the proximity to the river.  

    Its Oscar Orduno installing the temporary soil nail walls. Malcolm Drilling is performing the slurry wall construction and I heard they should start by the end of the month.
