OP here. Crane was in parking lot – apparently doing something on the roof of Ink and Elm. Slice and Pint did a soft open Thursday and seems to now be open. And, having lived here since the six point stoplights of doom were there, the roundabout definitely made things a bit safer if only for pedestrians. The brand new stop sign at Oxford Rd and Emory Drive has drastically increased pedestrian safety by making it harder to go ridiculously fast down Oxford.

On another note, we walked by Slice & Pint this morning and read in their window that they are now open, sans alcohol permit (BYOB for now).

The base of that crane seems to be further back then the parking lot behind the businesses depicted in the above picture. Could the crane be part of the ongoing work at the Clifton Ridge subdivision?

Indeed. I can’t imagine any pedestrian or driver preferring this as a lighted intersection. But if they are out there, I sure would like to hear why.

I’ve been saying for years that Emory must have a giant shoehorn they use to wedge more and more enormous edifices into an environment that I thought was pretty fully built out in 1980. Maybe that’s part of it peeping above the back of the pizza joint.
