Waterfront crane removal proceeds

PATTAYA:--Removal of the giant construction crane at the stalled Waterfront Suites & Residences project should be complete by month’s end.

 

Inspector Cris Chertsuriya said Sept. 19 that contractor Worakit Construction Co. had already installed necessary support equipment and a smaller crane was taking away pieces of the towering boom.

 

Pattaya ordered the removal of the huge crane sitting unused at the top of the 53-floor Waterfront tower for more than two years, calling it a safety hazard.

Yes, the large crane is gone and only a small one remains.

Good start........when's the rest of this eyesore coming down?

Sitting idle for 4 years, not 2.  Ridiculous.

So what about the next move, using dynamite to blow it up ?

What's the actual status of the project?  Dead, or temporarily stalled?

 

How about the buyers who presumably put money into down payments on the condos?

Good money after bad.

I feel no sympathy for anyone that invested in such an eyesore that obstructed a much loved feature of the hill behind if they lose everything without compensation. Hopefully it will prevent any repetition in future.
