Hanging Steel-BMW SC Plant Expansion Pic's

I said I would periodically post pic's of the BMW Plant expansion.The construction hit a milestone this week.The 1.2 Million sq/ft New Assembly Hall has started to go vertical.The big building in the background that is still under construction is the Paint Shop expansion.The 2nd Gen X3 will be added to the SC Plant in 2010 and a yet to be announced 4th "X" model will be added to the Plant in the near future.Thanks! PalBay

Thanks, palbay!

Looks like they are laying the ground work on which to build.

I sort of expected a lot more heavy machineries and equipments though.

It might just be me, but I think posting this in just one forum is probably enough. We don't need three or more copies of the same post.

Thanks for the post though.
