Threading a Needle On the Site

February 12, 2016

Before construction can begin in earnest on the site, first the team must establish connections to utilities like water and sewer, as well as figure out where all utility lines are located so we don't accidentally disrupt during the building process. For us, it means extending over to sewer lines near our friends and neighbors at Legacy Village, and needing to bore underneath J Street to make that connection.  It's like threading a needle from 100' away!

It's not the easiest work uncovering the spider-web of lines that run below the earth, but important for ensuring smooth operations in area!
