Construction Project Progress

The intent of this blog is to post a daily picture of the progress of a construction project which is building a retirement center near me in Covington Washington. It is convenient to take a picture as it is just around the corner. I have no interest in the project except it is something I can do to record the complete building a large project from start to finish. Stay tuned. To see the construction project scroll to the bottom of the page and click on the picture. When the big picture comes up look at the side panel and click on slideshow. If you want to start at the beginning to top left and click on "Album" Wait for the thumbnails to appear. These are LARGE files so expect to wait a while even with high speed internet. Otherwise just click on "Slideshow" in the right side panel and go from the one that shows. It will recycle to the beginning at Dec. 29.

Regarding the pictures of the construction of this subsidized housing project in Covington Washington State. The beginning of pictures were Dec. 29 2007.

Watch construction of apartment project

What you will be seeing is the construction of an apartment house in Covington Washington from ground breaking to the final finishing of outside the building. There will be no need to continue after that of course as no change will be visible. The project will not be finally finished until about the first of the year. Almost every work day I went and took a picture of the progress. As it moved along I had to change perspective because the daily change was more evident from another location. The other reason I changed location as I grow older it is harder to walk up to the second flight of stairs for the best view. I need a new knee. (and a lot of other things)
