Our Balcony


Since the beginning of May the balconies in our building are being restored. There are 12 "drops" of 20 balconies. With our "drop" being the last one done. That day has come and we were told to clear the balcony. This afternoon they barred our doors and we are sort of "jailed" in. I'll miss being out there! We expect to be in this situation for a couple of weeks.

The noise from all the drilling, in the cement, have been at times not that pleasant, especially the last two days. But they do take coffee and lunch breaks, what a relief that is. All the work of course is done with scaffolding, those guys jump over the edge of the balcony as if they are jumping a coffee table.

We could not go out today because we were also having a new in house fire alarm system installed. Today was reserved for our floor and we had to be here between 7am and 5pm. Well that has been done as I am writing this. The management of this building sure are on the ball. We certainly are very impressed!
