Work is resuming in Sioux Falls, South Dakota's Steel District after a crane accident, according to a report in Sioux Falls.Business.

“We know what happened with the equipment, and it was not anything to do with our building,” said Jake Quasney, COO of developer and general contractor Lloyd Cos. “We had a failure when it came to that piece of equipment.”

No one was hurt.

The crane, which was operated by a subcontractor, hit the corner of the nine-story mixed-use building that will be mostly office space with restaurants on the main level. The accident happened as the crane was lifting a precast column.
