AG ... I'm really not a Doom and Gloom type of person ....

I know that, actually you three guys that i pointed at are one of the reasons that UT is such an amazing forum.

Again...Such Doom and Gloom from the seniors, i guess Malibu Investment inc. have proven you all wrong

Not until shovels are in the ground... actually, screw that... not until the condominium registers.

Reed Construction Data is a reliable source but, hardly gospel and/or clairvoyent. I think you may be jumping the gun a bit blitzing the so called seniors as the last thing you want is to be tasting toe in the future.

I know you're joking, but considering I said that in MAY 2007 I'm pretty confident that I could be considered correct in my assessment.

I'm not sure how aA made it into the title, but RAW Design and Quadrangle Architects are actually handling this one.

Title still does not reflect this. For proof check out the RAW Design website.

I think I saw the beginnings of construction trailers on this site the other day. Any locals see anything?

What are those yellow crane like machines? What do they do?

^ They drill holes deep into the ground.

Soil Nailing
Soil nailing is a technique in which soil slopes, excavations or retaining walls are reinforced by the insertion of relatively slender elements - normally steel reinforcing bars. The bars are usually installed into a pre-drilled hole and then grouted into place or drilled and grouted simultaneously. They are usually installed untensioned at a slight downward inclination. A rigid or flexible facing (often sprayed concrete) or isolated soil nail heads may be used at the surface.

Thanks Dilla,

I thought the were taking core samples for testing (area could be contaminated). lol
