Week of January 19, 2015

2015/1/19 21:11:13

 Week of 1/19/15 – NEWSFLASH – Houston, we have a grade beam! More exciting progress to report at the Norwood site. The grade beam was formed over the past week, the concrete partially poured on the 16th, and as of the end of day (1/19), it’s all done! Workers will be tearing down the wood forms and preparing for the arrival of fill dirt to tuck back into all those crevices. We’ll be moving the house back into place over the new grade beam before you know it.

In the meantime, we’ve been busy bees, meeting with a host of fine professionals who are donating time in areas like event planning, museum services and project development. This will aid us as we continue our work on the architecture and our preliminary Phase II plan. One thing’s for sure: there is never a dull or lazy moment with Norwood. Thanks to all our givers who are helping us make it happen!
