milwhcky's picture Acuity appears to have scrapped the idea of having a tall flag pole.

It was taken down in October 2007 with a plan to erect a stronger pole. In April 2008, a new pole went up without a flag, but it was swaying badly in low winds. The base area of the flag pole has reportedly been torn out and replaced with grass.

milwhcky's picture In the various birds eye view scenes released today, the pole can be seen in various stages of assembly (or disassembly).
