Digging the foundation for the foundation

As you can see from the above photo, workers are now digging up the ground where the foundation for our north addition will go. These holes are for the helical piers, which will support the foundation. Workers will be doing a lot of testing very soon to make sure everything is just right: soil testing, concrete testing, pier depth testing and even glass testing!

This morning, the front of the Library was rumbling with activity as work continues on rerouting a storm drain. Check out this bulldozer!
