Here's something if you're interested. We're building a new downtown parking garage, and this hill needs to be blown away.
They had "us" (me) get the web cam going again so the engineers in New York can monitor it without being here.
It's on 24/7, and has a light sensitive lens so during the day it's in color and at night it converts to B/W.
The blasting isn't that impressive because they have to use blast mats.

At least it does give you an idea of what the weather is like right now.

There is very little parking in the downtown area and over the next couple of years, we'll see less (current free sites are scheduled for retail or state library construction). I know merchants and workers would like more available. I think it was also billed as parking for legislators, so we might gain 2-3 spots when it's completed.
