The Last Wall

Mar 12, 2010

If you’ve driven by our new marine animal hospital in the last several months, you may have noticed the exterior isn’t quite finished.  We’d left an opening in the side so that heavy equipment could get in and out.  Now that we’ve installed the sprinklers and placed the last turtle tank, we no longer need to get big lifts in and out and so we can seal up the side!

Today crews from Simmons Concrete formed and poured the last foundation wall.  Concrete was supplied by Cape Cod Ready Mix.  Bill Baker from W.W. Reich was on hand to make sure everything was ready.

Soon, our building will be weather tight!
