Well I am a daily viewer of CPA TV.  I know they have been digging holes and filling them with concrete since Thanksgiving.  They also closed traffic on University to bring the water mainline into the area.  Just looks at times like a large sandbox to me filled with my Tonka Trucks.  They have also spent the last couple of days creating a ridge and terracing it with a bulldozer and back hoe.  Can anyone out their clarify what is happening for us all? ;)jc

Without seeing it sounds like they are drilling the caissons for foundation. If the dirt is outside the footprint of the building they may be stock piling/sealing black dirt and sloping it for rain/snow so it can stay somewhat dry over the winter/spring.

So take a look at the CPA construction sight.......what’s the point of the large trench that they have been working on constantly for the last couple of days?  There is also a concrete pad that was poured yesterday in the foreground?  Have not seen the pylon apparatus for awhile but I have hunch that they have been working on the far right.  Thoughts! ;)Jc
