Great shot of the Virgin 747 that lands here often - as you can see we are right across the street from the airport.

North Wall Along Sunset Rd
Finished Wall along Sunset Road. Notice the insulation (Blue) - What a waste - These new energy requirements are crazy!

Columns
Columns on the West side of the Parking Garage.
Its nice to see something going vertical. Also, notice the foam insulation on the left side of the picture. The insulation was required to get the building to meet the new energy codes. This makes absolutely no sense to me as the building is in Las Vegas and the entire South East corner of the underground parking garage is open......
Go figure.

Footing Pad - Ready for rebar
This is on the south end of the property, where the entrance to the UG Parking Garage will be.
10lbs of @#$% in a 5lb Bag
None of these Underground Utilities are supposed to be here.
This is what happens when you develop a parcel that has everything built our around it.

Footing Excavation
Matt inspecting the footings. Footings were doubled to eliminate the need for footing drains.
Footing Excavation
The task of footing excavation has been a challenge as we have hit more Caliche. The footing size also doubled as we needed to eliminate the footing drains to to non access behind the shoring.

Escondido - The Start
This project is on the corner of Sunset Rd & Escondido in Las Vegas, NV right across from McCarran Aiport.
We are constructing a (2) Storey Building (11,500 sq/ft footprint) with an underground parking garage of 24,000 sq/ft.
This property has gone through (2) zoning changes and a special use permit and has taken almost (2) years from conception to ground breaking.
It has been a struggle but now the fun begins.
