This is kind of a Small Adventure. There's an empty lot across the street from the prefectural hospital, and in front of a discount department store and drugstore combo. For a long time, the lot was just empty, then a couple years ago the fence went up around it and it looked like it was being used as a staging area for a construction company. Some time around January, work started on a big steel structure that resembled a cross-over walking bridge, or possibly a low train trestle. It stood about 15 feet high and ran across the entire length of the far side of the fence. The work was very noisy, with a lot of riveting and pounding all the time. I was at the hospital 10 days ago, and a couple workers were still pounding on the structure. 1 week later, all traces of it were gone. Either someone decided to dismantle the entire thing overnight for some reason, or it was mounted on a VERY LONG flatbed and trucked out of the lot somehow...

maybe a piece of a tower; picked up by helicopter?
Possible. But something like that would have attracted attention, and people protesting the possibility that a cable could snap and drop the structure onto a house or something.
