Plumbing Work Begins
Our plumbing is going in this week. We are removing quite a bit of concrete to get this in. Sewage out the front, grease down the back. Piping delivered soon! No more basements found, which is a very good thing. We did dig quite a distance down, and we found the actual soil beneath the ground. Basically it's rocks and sand. There are stories about Clark Street being an ancient Native American highway when it was the old lakefront. Years have pushed the lake to where it is now, but this sand we found makes it pretty apparent that this was once lakefront property.
Slabs are coming up in big chunks. These will soon be picked up, and moved out.
Big hole dug for the pipes to exit the building. One pipe found, another one will be installed. Saw a camera view of the interior of the old sewage pipe today. Humans are dsgusting creatures.
Plumbers might have the hardest jobs on this project, but on the plus side, they have the coolest toys.
