Ktvb has a pic gallery of some tractors being hoisted into JUMP as of June 18,.

http://www.ktvb.com/news/Rare-collec...263869341.html

And remember this http://forum.skyscraperpage.com/show...&postcount=822 comment I made last July? With pics of some of the tractors and the link to smokstak.com, well someone over there found the post I made over here and....

Anyway, I informed the good tractor folks about the tractors being placed in their new home. They still seemed concerned the tractors might end up out in the weather.

long live erections!

The construction gods have answered our prayers!

They have decided to please us once again! We now must feast, and drink tons of beer in celebration of this wonderful day. Architecture_Buff and Sawtooth, you know what to do!

JUMP and Simplot HQ

I talked to a JUMP official of JR Simplot Company that uses our photos on their Facebook page(https://www.facebook.com/jumpboise), and the web cam photos we capture from their camera.

The site is:

http://www.dwpwebcams.com/jump/

So you can follow construction of JUMP and Simplot World Headquarters, please feel free to follow these two great projects. All photos marked web cam are from their camera on top of Capitol One building.
Each photo should have had the complete web site information for credit to the JR Simplot Company.
I want to thank his company for following us, and the great privilege of them allowing us to show the world what a great project and company they have and choosing Boise as their World Headquarters.

Tower Crane

Go to web cam to watch 2nd tower crane being erected.

http://www.dwpwebcams.com/jump/Project Information:

Jack's Urban Meeting Place - or JUMP as it's quickly becoming known - is a celebration of creativity and inspiration. It will be a place for the community to participate in a kaleidoscope of ever-changing activities, events, and programs.

JUMP will house five interactive studios including a Kitchen Studio, Movement Studio, Maker's Studio, Multi-Media Studio and Inspiration Studio. The creative center and community gathering place will also have event and meeting spaces, antique tractors, and a dynamic urban park with an outdoor amphitheater.

Located in downtown Boise between 9th & 11th and Front & Myrtle Streets, JUMP is a project of the Simplot Family Foundation. Construction is currently underway with a planned opening in 2015.
