Wow, this area changed quite quick. Feels like just yesterday it was still occupied with the trees and the lawn. However, both tended to be quite underused, especially compared to other areas of the campus. Good riddance for Barton Hall too. The building was not totally miserable, but it had few, if any, redeeming qualities, and the public space behind it was commonly called The Stonehenge, as it 1) contained inscrutable abstract stone pillars and formations and 2) was desolate enough for, well, getting stoned. During the daytime it was a nice little pathway to cut across the block and avoid daytime crowds.

The tower crane is going up, so I moved it to the construction forum.

There has been an accident and partial collapese of the 5th floor at this site. One worker was transported to the hospital with leg injuries.

I'm looking at it right now and it is unclear what happened but it looks like it will be a major setback for this project. Fotunately as of right now it looks like no one was killed.
