Construction starts with a rough outline in stakes, March 2006

Digging; view from basement window

Laying strip drains

Pouring rock footings

Concrete (or rock) goes in here...

Gets transfered to a conveyor belt here...

Goes all the away across there...

And comes out wherever it's needed.

The concrete forms have their own special crane.

That's a lot of forms.

With rebar in them.

The concrete has a long way to go...

before it gets funneled into the forms.

Reinforcements arrive. Many trucks worth of concrete went into the building.

Soon, the forms come off.

Tarring...

and insulating.
