Construction all over liberty....is more of it starting to turn up or are they all just there for show?

 

and are they going to finish or is it again, just there for show?

Most of the construction seems to be good for stunt jumps, thats why its there i believe.

i have been wondering the same thing because at the amusement park you know where the steps are there was contruction workers doing road work and it was'nt there before

I doubt it. In previous GTA games, the construction sites never really changed. They were like that the whole time. That's what is probably gonna happen with GTA IV. However, it would've been cool if they could change. That would make it more realistic.

Actually, one of my original thoughts about the DLC is that the developers might "up-date" the city, quite superficially, as part of the package. So for example, the construction work in south Algonquin may well be completed for the new story-arc, and a new set of buildings will be standing. Not necessarily to accommodate any specific missions mind you, just to represent the passage of time from the events of the original story.

 

It's a minor detail really, but it seems like something R* might do in order to breath new life into a fairly static environment (in terms of buildings that is) and give the impression of longevity to Liberty City.
