Silver Spring Transit Center photo blog hiatus

I won't be able to take my weekly photos of the Silver Spring Transit Center/mud hole for the next couple of weeks. My intention is to take this back up at the end of the month. In the meantime, please feel free to post a link to your own photos in the comments section.

Signs of Life at Silver Spring Transit Center





November 10, 2009. The Silver Spring Transit Center is abuzz with activity. Excavators, trucks, construction workers. Not much going on November 11, but it's also been raining all day today and the site is a mud pit. The photos here are from Nov. 10.

Silver Spring Transit Center Weekly Update











This week's update on the Silver Spring Transit Center:
Photos above taken Monday, November 2, 2009, about 8:45 AM

Ground breaking for the project: September 2008

YouTube poster obs3rv3r has an updated video, dated November 2, 2009. This appears to be a series of still pictures showing a couple of earth movers doing...well, something.

Montgomery County's project web page,still has Update #20 on its Status link, last updated March 16, 2009

Silver Spring Transit Center, still has one entry and one photo, last updated March 8, 2009

Silver Spring Downtown, still has the same posting with artist's conceptions of how the finished product will look, and the verbiage about starting the project is still in the future tense.

The Silver Spring Gazette's article of October 21 is still the most recent, and by far the most helpful information. A search of their website turns up nothing newer than this.
