It has been an exciting week on the site seeing over 1500 cubic yards of concrete poured. The first half of the 2nd floor elevated deck was poured overnight Saturday into Sunday and the rain managed to hold off. Crews started working on the formwork for the second half of this deck. Once that is complete Steel can begin, which is scheduled to start in mid September. Walls started to go up on the east side of the site with the corner formed up by the NE corner of the existing building. Below is a picture of the site from this morning where you can see all the major activities (mentioned below in the Next 7 days) underway.
We also have a variety of pictures updated on Facebook in the July and August Construction albums as well as the Aerials album.
