Erector Set City -- The Tower Cranes of Bellevue, Washington
By Greg Perry, Eastside Realtor

When I was a child, I played with Erector Sets.  My erector set had cranes and I built steel buildings.  Bellevue looks like a real live "Erector Set"!

Over a dozen tower cranes are currently working in downtown Bellevue.  It's a city whose skyline is growing before our very eyes.  Here are some photos of the cranes of Bellevue in action.

To help brace for the record downtown construction, the city of Bellevue published this news release.

And I thought Houston was always under construction. That is just crazy!

It actually looks quite eerie.  These cranes are in a very tight downtown area of approx 6 blocks by 6 blocks.

I had to send this to my brother in law who is a crane freak - but he works in the industry and loves to see cranes in action

 Thanks, Theresa.  Bellevue could become a tourist trap for crane freaks!
