STEEL IS GOING UP

A large portion of the site work has been completed. The three stories of steel are going up quickly. Next Friday a second crane will be erected on site to make double time with the steel erection. I am happy to report that we have interest in a second building. This building will be 30,000 sq feet and be located along Banning Street. From the aerial view it is just before the dirt piles in the upper right. My daughters, Olivia and Elizabeth, are shown having fun at the site. Pictured above is Ed Thwaites, project superintendent for Asset Builders. He and Bob Wood of Asset made a site suggestion that saved Eden Hill Medical Center over $200,000! --Tom Barnett

The crane has been erected and the first pieces of steel are going up! The footers for the front door have been poured.

Work continues at the site---The final footers at the front door were poured today. The footer work was completed twice as fast as usual per the "Walker" company foreman. The steel will be delivered on Monday and Tuesday and start to be erected on Tuesday, Aug 7, 2007. The pond work is 98% complete. The pipes coming into the pond have been set. The grading of the site continues. About 6,000 yards of fill dirt still need to be transferred from the east side of the property to the west side. In addition we have 30,000 yards of topsoil that needs to be taken off site. Essentially if someone is willing to transport it off site it is theirs! Otherwise we will have to pay $102 per truck load (2-3,000 truck loads) to transport it off site. --Tom Barnett
