I'm happy to report that construction is really moving along on the south addition! Actually, construction has been moving along ever since the sewer line was replaced, but lately it's been a little more visible. Last week (sorry I haven't posted in awhile!), the concrete slab (basement floor) was poured and the block walls were built. The next step will be to raise the steel support beams and then frame up the walls & floors in wood. Also last week, temporary scaffolding was put up next to the existing south walls. The scaffolding will help support the existing house when they break through the walls into the new addition. Here are some pictures:
Block walls of the south addition.
The block walls outline the perimeter of the new addition.
The addition looks huge from this angle! (The guy down there is the owner of the company that has done all of the foundation work on both additions.)
