Why Was There A Crane In Queen Street?

I saw this warning on Friday and could not think of why there would be a crane in Queen Street on Saturday Night Sunday Morning?  Any idea's?  I was not around in the early hours of this morning to see what was happening.

British Gas New Development In Cowley

Was up at the Oxford Business Park in Cowley this afternoon and was a little surprised to see a large crane alongside a lot of building activity. This is not an area of Oxford that I visit that often, but when I poked my nose about I spotted this large sign saying that British Gas was going to be moving in to this site once complete. There are lots of businesses in the area, and Oxfam have there international headquarters in this same business park. Nice clear day today as you can see from this photo.

Crane Operation In Magdalen Street

Advance warning for those who will be using Magdalen Street in the early hours, tomorrow night there is going to be a crane operating in the area, now I am not sure if the street will closed, but there is going to be access restrictions in the early hours of the morning. I think it is part of the Sainsbury's redevelopment that is happening at the moment. Sainsbury's is making it's store in Magdalen Street smaller, so it can open longer hours on Sunday and compete with TESCO next door.

Strange Addition To Said Business School

When walking to the train station today I could not help but notice that at this angle the crane working at the back of the Said Business School, looks like it is coming out of the tower. Just has to take a snap of that for the blog. There is a lot of working happening behind the existing school, it appears to be nearly complete, so I am not sure how long this crane is going to be on the Oxford skyline.
