We have a trailer!

















We must be an official construction project now as we have a construction trailer. It is located just south of Building C. Eventually Bertner Avenue will go through this area. Grading and prep work for the foundation continues. In the bottom picture, the wire that will be reinforcing the foundation piers is visible. It is sitting in the future parking lot at the southern end of the property. If everything (weather, availability of cement truck etc.) cooperates, the piers should be poured within the next week. (Old Spanish Trail is on the other side of the white building in the bottom picture.)
