[Photograph 2012.201.OVZ001.0129]
Photograph used for a story in the Oklahoma City Times newspaper. Caption: "Sidewalk supervisors are getting a chance to oversee a relatively new constructionmethod at the site of the new First National Bank office building. A motorized mouth parked in front of the construction site on Braodway north of Main is gobbling up concrete fed into it from a truck. As the motor grinds away it pushes the premixed concrete straight up 160 feet to the 15th level of the bank building. Unlike the huge cranes and concrete buckes used at other downtown construction sites to move concrete to upper levels, the pumping system takes up little room at the construction site."
