downtown aiken condos: Park Ave Update 4/9/09 - 04/09/09 11:15 AM
It's been a slow week next door - not much to report. The plumbers arrived and put their piping in place. (sewer / water and vent piping) Yohe Plumbing is doing the job. (Stan - JD and Jason) Jason (or was it JD?) tells me that they won't be back now until the framing is complete -- then they will come back and extend the piping all the way up! Paul and his crew are still working, too. Right now they are compacting the dirt around the piping - then they will add about 4 inches

downtown aiken condos: Park Place Update 3-23-09 - 03/23/09 09:30 PM
Not much to report on Park Place - they are just finishing up the forms etc...... should be pouring the support walls and slab soon. I'll be away from the office for the next couple of days - I hope I don't miss anything! Isn't it amazing how many people are involved in the process of new construction - and how even just one building project helps to boost the economy. In this case so far there has been a demolition crew, engineers, sample taker, pest control, utility marker guy, foundation company,ummmm - I'm sure I missed a few..... and more to come. Think

downtown aiken condos: Park Place Update - Making Sure Before The Next Step! - 03/12/09 12:18 PM
It has been quiet next door since they poured the footers - until yesterday afternoon! I had the pleasure of meeting Tim Wright and Rav (didn't catch his last name) today at the Park Place site next door. They are with CSRA Testing And Engineering Co., out of Augusta, Georgia - and can be reached at: 706.733.6960 if you are in need of their services. The reason for their visit to the job site was to test the ground below the footers. To be exact - they were testing the load bearing values below the footers. In laymens terms - they wanted to be sure that

downtown aiken condos: Pouring the footings - a Park Place update. 2-27-09 - 02/27/09 11:58 AM
The forms for the footers were all set up and ready to go by yesterday afternoon. I would have lost the bet if Paul had shook my hand, lol. I didn't think they would have it all done in time for this morning, lol. Just one more thing before the concrete can be poured - and that is the termite treatment. Here is the guy from Aiken Pest Control doing his thing! (they spray the ground prior to the concrete being poured) When I pulled up this morning this is what I saw!!! A HUGE concrete pumping truck :)

downtown aiken condos: Shooting the corners. (a Park Place Update!) 2/24/2009 - 02/24/09 12:58 PM
Mighty chilly here in Aiken this morning - but not too cold for Paul and Juan to be 'shooting the corners' at the construction site next door. What they were doing was marking the corners of the building...and all the load bearing walls locations ----- so they can get on with the next step of pouring the footers. (with CONCRETE.....not cement! - there is a difference, and I got quite an education on that this morning!) I have mixed concrete in the past. It takes cement (and other aggragate...like sand and stones) and of course the bonding agent

It has been pretty quiet next door, until I saw some action this morning! It was Mark - and he was marking the underground utilities - yaaay.....this means we are moving forward :) Mark has been doing this for about 12 years and says that business is good. He gave me the key to his markings, haha - here you go: Red = Electric Blue = Water Yellow = Gas Orange = Communications (phone/cable...)

downtown aiken condos: Park Ave update - 11/19/08 09:10 AM
When we last left Park Ave --- the deomolition had been completed - and all that was left was an empty lot. I pulled up to the office this morning and saw an interesting looking rig in the lot. Of course I had to go over and introduce myself and get nosey, lol. This is what I learned today. Jimmy was doing a compression test. They need to see what needs to be done to the ground to be sure it will support the three story building that will be built - and to know how deep the

downtown aiken condos: I may have found a new career! - 10/27/08 09:00 PM
The old antique store on Park Avenue is being demolished. Well, it is already leveled - they started tearing it down a couple weeks ago. Now they are working on the footers and the slab. I've been watching them everyday! Lucky for me they are working right next door to our office :) Well, the other morning Bob let me 'work' the excavater - it was the coolest! Soooo- I'm thinking, if you can't sell them, you might as well tear them down, haha. Just kidding! It was alot of fun to work the bucket - and swing the doo dad,
