Overhead Walkway addition to Orpheum theater.
An overhead walkway is being built to connect the Orpheum theatre to the OPPD parking garage across the street. The theatre end will be atop that concrete structure over the alley. Photo was taken from the spot where the West end of the walkway will connect.
The West end will connect to the small structure just to the right of the parking garage. The above photo was taken from inside the window.
Same view as the first photo, taken from street level.
Looking North from the middle of 16th street. The parking structure is on the left, (behind the tree) and the Orpheum on the right. This view will be gone once the walkway is built.
That's the First National Tower in the distance.

A day later part of the walkway is delivered.
The work crew prepares the walkway.
End view.
Look carefully, you'll see an onlooker.
The crane did double duty. Before lifting the walkway into place, it removed some equipment from the top of another building.
The East end of the walkway was placed first.
