A hazy and cloudy downtown is seen in the background as crews work to remove the Zilker Park moontower on Friday, April 29, 2016. The tower, which also forms the yearly Zilker Christmas tree, is being taken down for restoration and repair and will be completed in time to celebrate the Zilker Tree’s 50th birthday this holiday season. After being taken down, the Zilker moonlight tower will be disassembled and sandblasted to remove paint, corrosion and dirt. Then, the tower will be tested for cracks, repaired and repainted. The tower is expected to be reinstalled in Zilker Park in late summer 2016. Photo by dycannon #statesmanphoto #atx #zilkerpark #moontower
