Slab poured and Framing has started...

After some delays due to rain and inspections, the slab was poured on Tuesday 7-31, and framing began Thursday 8-2.  The first part of framing is to get the main floor beams installed, which is no small feat.  They have to be lifted into place by a forklift.

My freind Paul and I made a trip on Saturday, 8-4, ( Happy B-day Amy!), to see this and meet the waterfront contractor, AJ. 

Here's the view from the street - now there is wood on top of the columns.

Here's how they prep the beams before raising them:
