Concrete plan...
Jul. 25th, 2008 09:13 amOften we get notified of stuff going on in the 'hood if it will affect us - traffic-wise or crowd-wise or noise-wise... This morning there's a little ditty about how they will be pouring concrete into the Starbucks hole on Saturday. Here's the hole - it's just across the street (1st ave) from our building.

You can click on the picture above for a bigger version OR you can see it on their cool construction webcam site.
According to the elevator, they will begin the pouring at 3 a.m. Saturday and expect to go to noon. 3,000 cubic yards worth. The notice says that at 10 cubic yards per truck, that's 300 trucks.
wow. That's going to be some kind of operation! Wonder if they are going to get that crane out of there first?
