Four workers died when a crane collapsed 2 years ago, another died in a fall when scaffolding collapsed last month. Boat parade, walk, fireworks scheduled. Already had the first jumper this afternoon ...

Shame that so many people gave there life for it.
Kind of puts a damper on the celebration.
I remember being on the water when the O-I building opened. The regatta, boat parade, and party was great!!
And, don't bash Ohio - Lake Erie is some of the best water I've ever been on. I miss it.
