I saw almost this same view from the Jesusita Trail this morning. The crane had a really long girder hanging from it. Maybe retaining wall construction?

We know at least it's doing work at somebody's home who has a LOT of $$$$.

Crane work/rental is NOT cheap.

With orange on it, looks like Speciality Crane, office located at 1 Fairview Ave. in Goleta. They do many of the really BIG jobs; owned by Seth and Tanis Hammond.

Probably a long span across lateral load bearing walls in a house being built and requiring support beams and trusses made of steel or laminated wood and are too heavy and too large to be put in place without the assistance of a crane.

It's hard to understand what the question is asking.

It sounds like you want to know where the crane is even though you're looking at and took a picture of it. You could've followed your eyes to find where it was located.

However others seem to have read that you wanted to know how to contact the crane operator. But that's not what you said. The problem with ambivalence is not saying what you mean or mean what you say.

@319: I think you maybe read the responses wrong. The posters who identified the company that owned the crane suggested calling the company to find out where the crane was, not to hire it. And you can't always tell where something is by looking at it from afar, which is why the initial question was asked in the first place.

I didn't ask a question when I posted it. I just took a picture closer to something I saw all the way from state st. Interesting comments it generated. Basically it's one freakin big crane!
