A couple of weeks ago I posted about the big crane going up on the construction site next to work. We’ll, I finally managed to get a photo of them both in situ.
This is taken from the observation deck and while not perfect is the best publicly accessible spot. From work we get great views looking down but not looking up and these are way taller than us.
So. Much. Space.
It’s the Labour Day long weekend so that means Christmas cakes and that means the first full on use of the kitchen!
Fruit prep today and baking tomorrow.
This is my first non-renovation post in months but still construction related. The new building going up next door at work was a magnet for construction geeks this week as a second monster crane was installed. Roads were closed and a staggering amount of yellow framework was carefully lifted and connected.
I haven’t had a chance to get a photo of the finished product but will share when I do.
Electrical bits and bobs are all sorted and progress this week has mainly been on drainage. Not super photogenic and ultimately hidden but important to get right.
Before and after along the back…
and down the side
We are almost there! All the appliances are in, the oven, kitchen sink and dishwasher are all functional, just some electrical bits and bobs, the splash backs and outside plumbing to go.
Most importantly Huia has regained her preferred vantage point so big ticks all round.
