The Big Dig
by Margaret Graham
The speed of the building progress caught us by surprise. Just a few short weeks ago, I visited the hole in the ground, which was unreasonably impressive - we could actually imagine ourselves moving in and managing our materials there in the dirt.
Since we are not currently at the same location as the new building site, more thrills came when these images were sent.
Forms for walls.
Progress as of just last week. The first pour: setting the forms for the rails that will support the compact shelving.
Zamboni for concrete!
Before we know it we’ll be loading our 9,000 linear feet of shelf space…
