How many city employees does it take to install a light pole?

No joking at the expense of city employees here…after all, I am a city employee! This sight actually caught my eye because, although there’s another guy running the crane, it seemling only takes one guy to maneuver the base of this pole into place. He might be pretty tough, but I think it’s actually a matter of hanging the thing properly so that it’s balanced. In any case, it was pretty neat to see.

There may be more than two guys here, but I only saw two. Then I had to get back to work. Thanks to this crew, Vermont Avenue has streetlights!
