Movie prop

There was a large vacant lot at the corner of Pensacola and Waimanu streets where a large warehouse had been torn down. First, I noticed some concrete rubble had been brought in. A very light steel structure was erected. It looked like concrete was poured around the steel structure. Now, I wonder if it is just gray painted styrofoam. Little by little, more details were added until its purpose became more clear.

Hey, Glassman. If I get it figured out, I will let you know....;>)

Kevin:

It is an interesting thing to see. The work has been going on for a couple of weeks. At one end of the lot, there is now a collection of ambulances and "blue and white" police cars. Today, I noticed that a big piece of concrete was laying on top of the now flattened red car in the first picture. I thought they might be interested in renting my Alfa. It is a "disaster" in its own right. I am staying away. I don't want them to land a big piece of concrete on the roof....;>)

 

I went by the site yesterday morning and the erected structure has been taken down and there was a lot of clean up activity.

I went by one day and they had the emergency vehicles arrayed around, including a large "bomb squad" truck. I never saw any actors or anything that looked like actual filming. I never saw the multiple white trucks and equipment trailers that are normally present when filming is being done. Maybe, it was night shot??

It sure sure seems like a lot of money and effort for something that was used for two days, at most.

 

Hi Bryan

Thanks very much for the info. It makes more sense now. I should have made a couple of extra trips to the area. Do you have any idea if it was for 5-0 or a movie?

 

It never happened....;>)
