Preparation for build out begins!

The construction crew continues to pour concrete today.  The section below shows a section of the first floor celing that has to be filled in, in order to begin building out the rest of the second story.


The front of the building continues to change.  They have placed several steel beams to brace the structure for the second story build out.

Design, Check!

Our design meetings are officially complete and work around the building is in full swing.   With our tight deadlines the construction crews are taking advantage of the weather any chance they can get to do exterior work.

 Prepping the front for the second story build out
Placing a structural beam
 Today the contractors are pouring concrete to fill in two holes in the second floor.  One of the holes is where the old stairs used be and the other hole is being filled in to allow for the second story build out to take place over the current rooftop.

Ready for concrete
We have just a few more exterior decisions that need to be made, but we are looking forward to the buliding taking on a whole new look, day by day!

Construction Continues...

We continue to make progress at the site.  Now, if the weather would help us out a little! :)

Digging for the grade beam at the front of the building.  This will allow us to install the steel beam to support the patio and executive offices.
