Changes - for the better? For the most part.
I remember many weeks ago being told by Ian, the Axiom construction manager, that the building's current concrete entry pavers were temporary and would eventually be replaced. Well, it looks like he was right. They are removing the old pavers and replacing them with smaller slate or slate colored stone/concrete. This will be done on the ramp as well, but will it be extended to the patio area? As part of this change they are also putting in LED path lighting.
Good progress on the two stall parking area. One stall will be for handicapped access and I assumed the other was going to be for the car share vehicle, except we aren't getting one! According to the VCSC, Bosa chose not to purchase a car. They bought us all memberships but no car and the VCSC won't move one here unless we get 15 residents to sign up for the service - more on this in another post.
The other change is the removal of the sidewalk pavers in front of the parkade entrance and replacing them with concrete. This seems to be an asthetic step backwards but may have been done for long term reliability and less maintenance. I dug up some pics of the original pavers for reference:
More progress...
It was almost 8PM and workers were still there hauling trash to the dumpster. I was told by one of them that tomorrow is the "inspection". I took this to mean the inspection for the occupancy permit.
A complete set of pavers to the lobby.
The alternative ramped access path.
The lobby desk has arrived.
The parkade has now been joined to the road.
