This foundation trench goes around the entire building sight. They finished framing the foundation and inserting rebar last week. They are supposed to pour the foundation this week.
This shows the water work that they did to eliminate the water hole that we had on the north east corner of our lot. They knew they would have to design a way to fix that before we began as the hole would have interfered with the parking area. There were three water pipes emptying into this pit before they put in these manholes.
They inserted rebar in each of the sections of the foundation where the posts to support the big steel building will be. This shot shows that we still have a water problem. After rerouting a few water pipes, they were hoping that this water would all dry up. There were irrigation pipes, sump pumps and who knows what else draining in this area. This is the northwest corner of the building. They have a few options if the rerouting didn't work -of course for more $.
Notice the size of the foundation compared to our old preschool. The new building is going to make our present preschool look like the playhouse.

Thanks for keeping us updated. It's fun to see the progress they are making. Also, the preschool lawn looks great in the background. We miss you all!
April-do you want to be in our family picture because you are cut out of the one on this blog?
