The digging is complete and now the building back up begin. A huge team meeting was held yesterday to determine the location of the new party wall. Jodi and I, Roger, Joey and Daniel participated and in part due to a lack of a recent survey, we determined the location of the new wall by running a string along the existing party wall and simply extending it out.
The footings were poured today and the mason is in tomorrow to start placing the huge pile of blocks you see in the pictures.
There was our first hiccup with the city as the inspector came today and indicated that there is no party wall agreement on file which would us to build the new foundation. Joey assures me that this will be sorted out and Dan is going to keep moving because we would lose the mason for a week if he doesn't start tomorrow. I'm sure this will not be the last wrench caused by an inspector.
Windows will be ordered today and a decision on the siding is needed this week. Otherwise we're on track at the moment.
