I believe there are discussions happening between various parties over certain items (how vague, I know) and we probably won’t see much happening onsite until the discussions are complete.

Minor site update complete

by

I’ve done some minor touch-up work on the site, rounding off corners and updating fonts and logos for a cleaner, hopefully more modern look.

None of the site functionality has changed. The forum is still based on a WordPress plugin, and I continue to look for better options. In the meantime, feel free to register and post. Right now the forum is a community of one–me! And I don’t need an entire dedicated forum to talk to myself. 😛

Cleaning around the main sign and sidewalks

by

Jeff power-washed the stone cladding around the main Copperstone sign again. This was last done in September, showing how quickly moss can grow back on an untreated surface. He also began washing down the nearby sidewalk, which has taken to growing a bit of moss as well.

Here’s a shot showing a section of sidewalk after power-washing, with an untouched section farther up.

The stone cladding around the Copperstone sign is moss-free–again!

Work done today:

  • The excess fabric was trimmed along the top edge of the concrete curb at the base of the retaining wall behind the 244 building.
  • The area in the first tier of the retaining wall to the right of the ventilation shaft was tidied up and soil was used to fill the space. The soil was taken from further down the first tier.
  • It appears the exposed electrical cable on the pavers was placed under the pavers.
  • Soil was also taken from the pile at the front of the site, but I could not determine where it went.
  • Workers onsite: Two.
Soil moved into the lower tier of the retaining wall.
Workers gathering soil.
This dented down spout was not here yesterday. The exposed electrical cable that was here is gone.

I believe the spout in the photo above is the one seen in this photo I took yesterday, just visible near the small flag near the centre of the photo:
