This week, roughly 70% of the foundation footings have been formed up and poured! In these pictures, Maas Brothers, our concrete contractor, is installing forms for these pours. Pictures were taken on Tuesday and the pour took place on Thursday. Starting next week, the masonry fire wall will start to go up against the existing building wall, as well as the concrete foundation walls on the other three sides of the addition. We will be out of the ground before you know it!
