"The American"

I'm starting to think this is never going to happen.

LOL

Or just severe construction delays, from 2007 on this thread:

Today, I got word back on an email from "The American" staff.  Minus pleasantries and names, here it is:

"Our projected goal is to complete the first of two phases of fundraising this fall/winter 2007. If successful, we will begin construction of the statue at that point. Construction of support facilities will follow in the second phase of fundraising. There is a four - six (4-6) month start-up phase with construction of the statue, so evidence of the statue construction would not be visible immediately, probably not until around May of 2008. We plan to have a groundbreaking when construction officially begins.
 
I hope that answers your question.  If not, just let me know and I will attempt to answer your question more fully."

I actually have a nervous reaction every time this topic pops up.
