Looks like we're about to see the birth of a whale! Crews are currently on site!

From near where 315N begins: Can't wait to see what this looks like in six months!

ha! i tried uploading them yesterday but kept getting an error (error 200)

Here's the other ones i got at Intel yesterday. These are from Mink as well:

Quarry Trails

Here's a few more from the Intel site. These are from Mink: (i have a few more that i can't upload right now for some reason. I'll try again later)

Some were asking for pics from the Intel site the other day. I did get some today but they may be hard to see because a lot of the action is somewhat off of the road. (you'll probably have to zoom in on most of these to see much) From Green Chapel:

Mulby Place

Fencing finally up at the old Tee Jaye's location at Morse & High

The second building at the Google Data Center complex off of Parsons on the far south side is now vertical. (It's kind of hard to see but this is as close as i could get before security was on my A) lol

I was out on Alum Creek Dr earlier so i used the chance to check the progress of the Rickenbacker Pkwy extension to the east. Currently it dead ends at Heartland Ct (just past 762) but that shouldn't be the case too much longer. As you can see here, this phase looks to be moving towards completion at a nice pace.

Few more from Gravity 2

Topiary Park Crossing

Arlington Gateway

Absolutely! lol Every Monday, since the Intel announcement, we've been hitting Huong on Morse Rd for their delicious pho, and then we head on out to the Intel site. we will definitely be back out there Monday! 😉

We went out to the Intel site yesterday for our weekly "progress check". In case anyone hasn't been out to the New Albany area lately and are curious as to what's going on around Intel, I thought I'd give a small update. (I didn't get a whole lot of pics though because the majority of the current action, at least on site, is kind of off the road a quarter mile or so.) As far as the Intel site itself goes- there's substantially more heavy machinery and workers on site than there was even just a week ago. This is such a massive chunk of land, that crews are still putting fencing up around the perimeter and probably will be for another week or so. I only saw two houses still standing on the property (and those two are kind of off to the side a bit from where the first fab is going, so tearing those down may not be a priority right now). From what I could tell, all the trees that were on the site are now down- although there are some piles here and there that still need to be hauled away. Road construction around the site is picking up as well. Beech Rd north of Jug St is now closed for widening. Clover Valley Rd from the Harrison Rd Extension to the Intel site itself is also closed for widening. Parts of what will be the main route to and from the construction site for workers using 161 are quickly moving along as well. Crews have now moved the traffic on Jug St over to the newly built portion of that roadway. The Harrison Road Extension isn't too far off from being completed either, as crews were pouring the curbs on it yesterday. They've also moved traffic to one side of the new roundabout going in at Jug and Harrison as they complete the other side. All three of these projects are supposed to be finished in August. Just to give you an idea of how quickly things are moving along now at the site- as we were headed back down Mink to 161 along the eastern edge of the site, we passed a relatively new "side entrance" to the site (near Miller and Mink) where security guards check in construction traffic and there was maybe 10 to 12 dump trucks lined up at that checkpoint waiting to get in. And we passed maybe ten more along Mink that were headed that way. The entire area bounded roughly by 161, Beech, Green Chapel and Mink is quickly and drastically changing and this is just the very beginning!! 🤤 I did snatch these yesterday:
