While the asphalt work was going on, there was a steady stream of reddi-mix trucks delivering for the the first pours on the floor slab. The loading dock area shows how the hog wire mats are positioned prior to the pour.

Bristol Virginia Utility (BVU) here today...installed a taller metal power pole across the highway and raised the existing power lines to the top. I think in order to provide vertical clearance for the future traffic signal supports.

The HVAC system is all York equipment (made in the USA!). There are 2 large units that appear to contain the compressors and these 2 will be lifted to the roof with a helicopter next Tuesday. It looks to me like there are 7 other pieces (supply air handlers?) and another 8 pieces that might be for return air.

The curbs are probably already in place and I've seen some sheet metal sections go up earlier. Will try for more pics when the ducting begins.
Appreciate the feedback!

The unit with two compressors is a two stage ac. The two condenser fans will cycle independent of each other to keep the high side pressures within a specific range. Thus allowing the AC to operate in very low ambient temperature. Standard residential units aren't made to function lower than 55°
Thanks again...do these units recirculate from inside the building and/or would there have to be a separate exhaust system if they don't?

Playing around with the Highlight Reel in the updated Google (Ooops, that's a Motorola only) Gallery app.
Edit: Renamed the YouTube file and added more pics now that I've played with the App a bit.

Much of the activity since the previous posts were repetitive, inside the building or otherwise uninteresting to me, and probably to you.
The videographer for the City was on site last week and I watched as he flew his drone (4 prop copter) over head and took other ground level videos. (He's totally edited out any sight of my dirty Buick!)
Something I'll be watching in the near future is the creation of the project name-sake..."The Falls".
At one time the intention was to locate them near the corner of the remaining hilltop at the entrance of Cabelas Blvd off Lee highway. The pic below kinda shows the construction ramp from the right that I suspected would be access to the area to build The Falls.

More recently it seems that they are preserving the wall of rock where a former quarry was located next to Lee highway (pic below). Rocks at the sides of this quarry had to be removed in order to widen Lee highway to 4 lanes plus a center left turn lane.

Anyway, the City has posted an Update to YouTube and it includes a Memorial at the end for Josey Baker, one of the owners of the primary contractor for site development who was killed in an accident at home on the 4th of July.
