Construction crane boom at Hemingways in East London

While the Hemingways Mall in East London was under construction, there were these massive great cranes on the site. We stopped there one morning so that Terry could take some photos of the cranes. I was sitting in the car, and noticed that one of the cranes had swung its boom out over the roadway. I had only a cell phone with me, but used that to take this crane pic.

Construction cranes at Hemingways shopping complex and casino in East London

These metal construction giants at Hemingways in East London looked impressive against the early morning sky. Construction equipment like cranes really can actually look quite beautiful!
Building the Hemingways shopping complex involved a mean bit of contruction work, and we're glad we took a photo before the building work was complete. You may like to visit our site about building too, or perhaps read about the frustrations of slow traffic and long lines of cars on the roads prior to the completion of the Hemingways shopping complex, when lots of road construction was also going on in the area. We think there were lots of angry, frustrated and impatient drivers on the roads in East London around that time, who simply couldn't wait for all the Hemingways complex and road construction work to be over!
