Finally…a foundation to build upon
After many, many (too many) months of struggling with red tape and delays of all kinds, the foundation to Linda Jackson’s house on Forestall Rd in the Lower Ninth Ward is finally being poured.
Project manager David Kramer reports:
The foundation chain wall is poured. EPCO said they would work on the weekend to set the blocks. Met with a plumber, he bid $7800, would start anytime after the floor is in. We still have no temporary
power, NENA can loan us a generator. I ordered the first lumber drop
on Tues. I moved most of what is left of our tools. We have NO NAIL GUN or sawz-all. I have no idea if they were taken off the shipment or out of the storage shed. No one I talked to has been at NENA long enough or ever knew what we had stored there. I just hope whoever has them found a job using them.
