New Crane On Site??

I noticed this today, but i wanted to get some opinions on what exactly is it...There is a Red V in the area of construction seen in This pic. it has Red extentions leading both ways away from it...it looks like a crane laying down.

------------------
Guess who's back....back again ;)

I guess we'll know by tomorrow, won't we?

June 28th: LocoBazooka Tour (Sevendust headlining)
July 11th: Korn, Puddle of Mudd, and Deadsy

There are two huge cranes on site now, verified Fri. night.

Florida may have Disneyworld and Key West,
but Ohio has Cedar Point and Put-In-Bay.
It's great to live in Ohio!

So does two cranes mean work on two towers?

Both cranes were there last week. Nothing new about that.

What i can tell by the red V....is that it is a double boom crane....can anybody confirm this??...they probably added an extra boom on that old huge crane.

edit: CONFIRMED....the 2nd crane seen in this pic....it is just as huge as the crane in use now ir even BIGGER!!.

I can't imagine the need for two huge cranes on one tower. Of course all of the evidence points to the L-TH-B theroy except for the fact that there are two huge cranes. Plus with all of the yellow supports left in the lot and on the actually site one might think that a second tower is possible, there are also a lot of railroad ties sitting around which would indicate crane movement.

Yes. I was there tonight, and there are Two large cranes. It seems that they are both of about the same size one was laying flat and the other was slightly up in that lowered upside-down V position. but it appears that they are of the same length. You really get a feeling for the shear size of this thing when you stand next to it. The top of the tower is just even with Magnum (as seen from looking straight across from the top of magnums hill). It seems that there are only two rows of footers. SO FAR!!!

Who said it was a theory?

How can it NOT be anything more than a theory? There's nothing official to back it up.

All we have is footer alignment, which does seem to indicate a L-TH-B...but that hardly makes it more than a theory. When I see that pullout connect right to those copper fins--then it'll be fact.

They are both the exact same cranes that were there last weekend, and the exact same length. Just now that really really long one that was just in the process of being assembled was lifted up and used all week (at least from what I could tell in the web cams) then the upperboom was lowered createing the V-effect. The other crane laying flat on the ground is the same one that has been there for the past few weeks.
