In the first two pictures you can see the preparation for pouring the slab. Under the plastic, there is a termite treatment. In picture one, the area in the foreground is for the community room/office building. Picture two shows the west four-story apartment building. You can see the elevator shaft in the foreground. This area is pictured in the background of picture one. In picture three, the crew is beginning to pour the cement for the community room/office building. In picture four they are working the cement for that building. Every little bit of progress we can see gets us closer to a probably September finish date.
