We’ve reached October here in the Bluegrass, and once Bill Meck commands it, the weather will begin to turn cold, which means the cranes at CentrePointe will soon begin their seasonal migration to the southernmost part of the stalled development project.
“It’s really a beautiful thing to watch,” said real estate mogul and real-life Austin Powers villain Dudley Webb, head of the CentrePointe project. “It’s amazing how the cranes just know to do this on their own every year, and it’s totally not just taking place because we’re legally mandated to move dirt around and pretend like we’re actually working every couple of months.”
While Mother Nature can often be wondrous and breathtaking, some experts worry that the timeline of the crane migration is too early and a result of man-made climate change.
“I’ve been around for all eight generations of cranes that migrate to the south of the lot,” said CentrePointe landscaper Mo deGrasse Tyson, “and it keeps happening earlier and earlier each year. It’s definitely something the next former vice mayor needs to address when he or she takes office.”
This year’s migration will be filmed as part of the Discovery Channel’s new documentary series Plan It (But Never Build It) Earth. It was originally set to air on HGTV, but they only deal in projects that have a realistic chance of reaching completion.
In order to complete the migration south, construction workers had to clear some debris in the middle of CentrePointe, which they accomplished by charging Ricky’s Samsung Galaxy Note 7.
