Wissahickon Restoration Update 8/23/13

All three phases continued to go smoothly this week which included the contractors moving out of phase I.  Phase I still has some detail work remaining but has seen the major aspects of the project wrap up.  With Phase I done; from the contractors aspect, they have been really making progress in Phase II and Phase III.  Please enjoy the picture and video updates below to see the true scope of this week's progress.

Phase I

This week saw the major construction of Phase I come to a end with the completion of 8 and 9.  This included the laying of the green, tee, and approach sod on 8 and 9.  We also seeded the areas on 8 and 9 that did not get sodded and we are continuing with our detail work throughout Phase I.
