Another delivery: closeup and not:<\/span><\/p>\n

Plane coming into Teterboro Airport (note deployed landing gear). You\u2019ll see a lot of that this month:<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Whole lotta wood:<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

If I recall correctly, this was left open overnight (check for squatters!):<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

It appears that 3 cranes were working Passaic St (but 1 and 3 might be the same) and click to enlarge:<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Prepping a load for liftoff:<\/span><\/p>\n

PANO shot from mid-block of Passaic St between Main and State:<\/span><\/p>\n

Crane at Main & Passaic (Look at its wheels……about to tip over?<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Another mid-block shot:<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Getting close to State St:<\/span><\/p>\n

Crane\u2019s strap flapping in the breeze:<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

NOVEMBER 4<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Yesterday, it was strap-flap – today, it\u2019s house-wrap being installed:<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

I had to walk to somewhere on State St. On my way back, I noticed what the sun was doing on the building and took a quick shot:<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

And then I took a couple more photos between State and Main:<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>\"\"<\/a>\"\"<\/a>\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

NOVEMBER 5<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

More Typar to put up\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026but who stole my ladder?<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

OK – that\u2019s better:<\/span><\/p>\n

Gettin\u2019 there\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Top: Perfect!<\/span><\/p>\n

Later: \u201cSomeone\/something ate holes in the Typar!\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Much later: \u201cSomeone\/something ate rectangles<\/em> in the Typar!\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201cMight as well clean up the mess while somebody else sticks his arm between the wall and the Typar for some reason.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201cI know what I\u2019ll do! I\u2019ll play Pickleball with someone!\u201d (Note the net)<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Sounds like a logical move\u2026\u2026..<\/span><\/p>\n

Sunset:<\/span><\/p>\n

Watch your step!<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

And remember to look both ways when carrying a big board!<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Geez – a lot of that going on around here!<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

And be ESPECIALLY careful with your board toss!<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Enter the wood maze\u2026\u2026\u2026.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

And while you\u2019re lost in there, straighten some stuff out, wood<\/em> ya?<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a> \"\"<\/a> \"\"<\/a> \"\"<\/a> \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

More angled wood that caught my eye (yours too, I hope):<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

NOVEMBER 7<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

It\u2019s all good because it\u2019s all wood, all the time (and in the order I photographed them):<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Remember that mysterious \u201cPlaza is closed\u201d sign from 3 days ago?<\/span><\/p>\n

Here\u2019s the full visual story (click to enlarge – twice……and you’ll still need to scroll – it’s a biggie):<\/span><\/p>\n

NOVEMBER 8<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

More wood stuff:<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a> \"\"<\/a> \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

That last one\u2019s got some strap-on-sap action going on.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Oh, look! Another Teterboro-bound private jet!<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Historical side note: Hey – does anyone remember Arthur Godfrey? Did you know he recorded a single called \u201cTeterboro Tower\u201d?<\/span><\/p>\n

Don\u2019t believe me?<\/span><\/p>\n
