Construction Progress- The Charles

The condo project at 2431 Ontario Road is steadily progressing.  The underpinning in the basement finished today, and tomorrow they'll start forming up the rear walls.  We hope to have the foundation finished by the end of the week next week.  That timing will be ideal because all of the masons should be finished at The Gracie project and can come build the rear walls here.

Here's one of the concrete workers setting one of the forms.  The line on the brick wall shows the old height of the basement, and where he's standing is the new height.  We dug down about three feet because a foot will be under the new slab, and then we'll finish with a ceiling height of almost 9 feet.

The guys poured the floor sections in five different pours so it was never fully excavated at one time.
