First floor of the house is framed, finished with those silly little screws. Hot and cold water tie ins for the house are done, and 2/3 of water lines are installed. About half the downstairs electrical work is finished as well. Next we finish water and power, insulate, and start hanging drywall ..progress

Well, it's finally done. 12 yards of 3500psi concrete, out of the truck, flat and finished. The big L shaped deck over the marquesina, 52x10' on the long side, 23x11' on the short part, makes an amazing rooftop hangout space for the main house. We also got the driveway finished as well as a 3x12' sidewalk behind the house for concrete measurement "overage". Gotta love the view from that upstairs deck.

Getting close to concrete time again. Everyone likes a little balcony with an ocean view. This one happens to be 10x52 feet over the owner's marquesina parking area and someday outdoor second kitchen. It wraps around on the street side to make the bottom of the L another sizeable space of 10x23 feet. ..and check out that view.

Two days ago, the municipio "operation brea" street repaving finally visited us and gave us a street (first picture). Today, the crew was back as we had them pave our parking area. This should finally cut down on layers of dust on our solar panels, and makes the place look... well... done.

A little assembly line work. Setting up fixtures to speed drilling 3 holes in each of 20 galvanized angle pieces, soon to be mounting stanchions for our railing posts on the marquesina roof, master suite balcony. 20 pieces, 60holes, one cobalt drill bit, add water for longevity.

The work on the marquesina superstructure is coming right along. The border that will be the permanent outer concrete form is now up and fully welded. Next comes 2 inch angle for the top edge of containers in front, then concrete jacks and formboards to reinforce the galvalume we'll use as concrete pans.

More white paint, makes things look a bit more civilized looking. Of course, this is only the first coat, and we know the rust neutralizer will bleed through a bit, especially the top floor, but sealing everything means no more oxidation. Next, the galvanized 3-1/2 inch edging around the top of our steel work that will also be the concrete form when we pour the marquesina roof

What a difference a little paint makes. No more black blotches from rust converter on old faded yellow. 3 sides of the house master suite are freshly white, at least first coat.

It took a while, but superstructure for Marquesina is finished. Columns are 12ga 3x3 inch square steel galvanized tubing, holding up lots of 4 inch 7.7 pound I-beam. It will sit for a couple weeks now, because the sheet metal shop making our border for the concrete roof is closed until after 3 kings day. Remember, in Puerto Rico, Christmas is a 2 month holiday.
