Is it friday already!

I had to check the calendar to be sure, but it is friday!

We're moving right along with construction and you'll see some visible progress from previous pictures. There is a lot of ductwork going on throughout the facility. The electricians have also been working everywhere trying to get all of the wiring and conduits layed out. The framers have been working on the slide tower and entrance way framing in the walls and installing the fibre board. Glaziers have been installing more window frames and doors. And the other crews have been working on forms and plumbing for the pools. The tiling crew is on site now grinding all of the surfaces that will eventually have tile. The block work is close to finished in the stairwell and elevator shaft. There is also sprinkler system piping being installed over the competition pool.


So what I have selected to show you some of this progress is the photo above, which shows the main entrance foyer looking toward the not yet built reception area. Looking forward and to the left you can see the two doors that will lead to the activity rooms. Straight ahead is where the reception staff and programmers offices. Ahead and to the right is where you will go access the changerooms for the pools or upstairs to the fitness area.


This photo is the Swirl pool showing some of the plumbing.

Here is the slide tower framed in with cladding being erected. The long narrow gap in front is where the windows will go. The small gap to the left is where one of the slide will exit the tower. The stairs are framed in with the stair treads and landings yet to be added.

This photo shows two concrete pads being installed. These will support the electrical service and the generator for the facility. The gas supply was installed last week and is on the top left of the photo.

Enjoy your blog and have a good day.
