Do you think one could setup a tripod like this in the United States and not have the police alerted a few minutes?

I dunno about a tripod, but using a scissor lift or cherry picker, sure. Especially if you don an orange reflective vest, hardhat and similar accoutrements.Do you think one could setup a tripod like this in the United States and not have the police alerted a few minutes?

What do you think, a crew of three to operate that one? I must lack imagination, I never thought of that kind of setup before.
"Whatever it takes!"
Prefer my own tripod, and own Phillips 8x10 shots. But that setup is tiny compared to what some of the 18th frontier photographers used. One had a crew which had to build a scaffold for each shot. I seen a picture of it, along with modern 6 ft wide contact prints made from the few surviving negatives.
At least Massimo was above the Hurricane/Supermoon tidal surge height. Maybe that was the point. But I was under the impression he sometimes shot 11X14 color (still bigger tripod?).
