Someone over on SSC posted this picture of an advertisement in a Malaysian newspaper.

I'd have to think it'll be advertised in Singapore too.

I saw an ad in the on-board Singapore Airlines Magazine.

Good to hear - I actually wouldn't be surprised to see it advertised in a number of Asia Pacific countries with a number of millionaires looking to buy some prime property in the US.

The article also states that 34% of the real estate transactions since 2011 in Chicago come from Asia Pacific investors. I'm sure that has to do with $$ more than number of buildings.

I'm losing sleep wondering when crews will actually start digging.

Sounds about right. Though I still think that Case will probably move their heavy rigs from the Bennett Park site over here. I assume Case is the only contractor who can get this size job done.

No news. I was in the area and snapped a picture of the site.

Zapatan · #**1411** Posted **Jun 20, 2016, 7:51 PM**

It should be starting soon right?

pilsenarch · #**1412** Posted **Jun 21, 2016, 2:52 PM**

I was told by a source in Magellan that they will break ground in July...

LouisVanDerWright · #**1413** Posted **Jun 21, 2016, 3:10 PM**

^^^ Yeah, I'm pretty sure all the chatter we've been hearing for like 6 months now has been pointing to a July start.

marothisu · #**1414** Posted **Jun 21, 2016, 3:14 PM**

When in July? Middle? end?

pilsenarch · #**1415** Posted **Jun 21, 2016, 4:10 PM**

uhmmm, ok, ... I'll say middle!

Not sure what this equipment is for... perhaps utility work?

What happened to the May or June start? I'm getting all antsy in my pantsy over here!

That was never in the cards, don't know where people keep getting a June or may start from. They've been saying July since last year...
