Day 1 of demo: Arlington graffiti


Demolition started on 30 Dec. In the Army, there is now zero week before you start Airborne school. We have had 18 months of pre-construction zero weeks--planning and preparation to get to this stage of construction. It’s amazing to watch what probably took months of construction getting turned into rubbish in a matter of days.

Steve, our GC from RARCOtagged surfaces and items with spray paint indicating those to be demolished and what will be kept.
General contractor--in charge of what happens and fails to happen
The I-beam room now has no roof. It is capped with the blue tarp of rooflessness, like post-hurricane Florida.

The heat pipes and radiators were removed from the rear of the house. The HVAC crew fixed it so we can have heat in the part of the house we'll be living in. Of course, right now, there's no door separating the front of the house from the rear so it's pretty cold. Good thing that temperatures have stayed above freezing.




I think I will go investigate what the loud crash was...
