Foundation Progress



Footings are poured and the forms for the foundation walls are being set. They are supposed to finish the walls tomorrow and pour the concrete. They'll come back on Friday and strip the forms. By this weekend we will have a complete foundation minus the floor. The plumbers will come in after the foundation drains are installed and is backfilled and do all the initial plumbing. After that the floor will be poured and it will be time to frame!



Elise is checking out the future rec. room. This is taken from where the Laundry room will be.



We are going to have a patio out front on this lower level instead of a deck like we had originally planned. We can make the patio bigger and that will help with not really having any yard to speak of.

Wow it is amazing how quickly some things come together. Let's hope that the progress continues like it has within the past 7 or 8 days. Since your previous post clearly a lot of work has been accomplished. Nice to see some structure coming together.

A interesting project from the perspective of Elise! Where is my room Mommy and Daddy?
