I’m not exactly sure what the structure they are forming in the center of the foundation is.  Perhaps an elevator shaft?  Perhaps a stairwell?  Maybe a middle support?

The masons made quick work of this cinderblock wall whih covered up the old uneven brick one that was behind there just a few days ago.

Downtown Construction Update

Last week the footings were poured and now the rebar is in place for the pouring of the foundation.

Note where I placed the arrows on the curled over rebar.  Once the cement is poured, it will form and harden around the curved rebar.  This will give the foundation added strength and lock it all together nicely.

When pouring foundation or forms with rebar it ups the structural integrity of the foundation exponentially.
