We're moving along!  Substantial progress was made in the last month. Work appears to be progressing well and is now under way at all aspects of the project. Over the course of the next period, we anticipate most of the MEP rough-in work will be complete at Building 1 and 4 single-family homes and drywall installation will be under way at the 4 single-family homes. At Building 1, we suspect air sealing will be in progress and the general contractor will be preparing the building for cover-up inspections. At Building 2, we expect rough-framing work will be under way.
