I know that posts have been few and far between lately but have now fear for the photos have been updated just not the words. As they say a picture is worth a thousand words. There have been a lot of changes to the site since i last updated.

  • There is now a layer of cement covering the basement of the new dorm.
  • the west wall is up and poured
  • the supports for the front entrance are down and if you look at it compared to the renderings of the dorm you can see it come to life
One of the more interesting photos that I put up is one looking through the west wall window at the east wall going up. If you look you can see how the windows are started and framed while looking through a finished window.

The construction is moving forward very quickly. Then again it seems like the team is working around the clock before winter starts. Once the temperature drops and the snow begins to fall most of the work that they will be doing will involve iron work going up.
