November Construction update

You may have noticed: it’s autumn. Lots of wind and rain, and with them a bit slower progress on the Grow phase 2 worksite.

Not to worry, as we’ve built the challenges of the season into our schedule. And we’ve made good progress getting the site prepped, stockpiling dirt for later use and digging foundations for the Salal and Juniper buildings.

Concrete forms for the underground garage will arrive onsite in the next few days, and the footings and foundation walls will begin to take shape. Reinforcing steel will be delivered in batches to allow continuous concrete “pours.” As the forms march around the garage perimeter, the concrete will cure in advance of construction of the garage roof.

You’ll see a rhythm as the work progresses, and so it will go for the next several months – wind and rain no deterrent.
