How the job went.
- The job
Children's Hospital of Philadelphia had updated its logo on every building but one. The old sign on the 240 ft Abramson Research Center tower, its lights broken, still needed replacing.
- The problem
The roof BMU had been the only way to reach the sign, but a skybridge built below the tower now blocked it. That left a crane basket as the only option, and the old sign was weathered and fragile.
- What we sent
Our A-300, our largest lift, working with a local crane company. Two technicians from a sign maker in business for more than 100 years rode in our basket.
- How it went
The crane carried the signs, and the crew also tied them off to our basket to keep them from swinging. Our operator ran the lift the whole time. Done between 10 am and 3 pm.
