Steel framing is almost complete

It's a good day to be inside, so we have 10 carpenters working in here today. They're working inside the hoardings, but some other poor souls are outside with the cranes, which have windscreen wipers on the roofs of their cabs. You learn something every day...

The steel frame should be finished on Thursday and then the floors are begun, beginning with Level 2. First the bolts, then the concrete. Digging out of the basement is complete, and concrete will be poured next, ready for the water tanks which will recycle our rainwater, as we're an eco-friendly green building.

We hope to have the latest photos soon.
