The Construction...

When we moved in, the lot directly across the narrow street from our apartment was empty. Our bedroom window (looking East) provided a nice view of gravel and the backside of the next building over. Well, now every morning around 7:30~8:00am we listen to a half-dozen or so workers as they progress on the construction of what is surely going to be another 4-story apartment building with retail space on the first floor, just like the other dozens of buildings on these blocks. So, I have decided to take a photo every day of the progress. I haven't kept to every day so far, but from here on out I promise to stick to it:

January 6 - cutting and laying the rebar for the ground-floor slab.

January 15 - slab complete; beginning of forms erected.

January 19 - continue erecting forms; installing utilities.

January 20 - form-work for columns and headers taking shape

January 21 - form-work continued

January 22 - form-work continued

January 25 - laying rebar for first level ceiling / second level floor

January 26 - concrete poured
