More finger piers are in place! This is D-dock. There was activity everywhere
you looked today! Here, four men are working on some of the the final
 details on the finger piers.


The crane is between D-dock and E-Dock putting in the intermediate
pilings between the finger piers. As you can see, there are only a few
finger piers remaining to be installed.  These are the longer outside
 fingers and T-piers at the end.


If you have any concerns about how much these floating docks will
support, this should allay any fear. These are very heavy pallets
 of the wood wales that go along the side of the docks. You can see
that the piers are lower in the area of the load, but only by a little.


The bulkhead is nearly finished. The platform will be the support for
 the ramp going down to the pier. Here the men are working on some of
the conduit that has to go through the bulkhead prior to dumping
 in the remaining fill dirt.


The large crane base is having a lot of re-bar added for the extra
concrete which will be poured in the next day or so.
It should be a good foundation!


This large pipe will be the drain for one of the North parking lots. It should
drain much better than it than it did previously.
