Removing the Wooden Guard Rail

Sunday, May 31st, 2009

Since we filled and compacted the void at the back of the project site, it was (finally) time to take down the wooden guard rail.

It was a long time coming.

We installed the railing in the middle of January so it was in place for almost five months.

The void is filled in, and the wooden railings are gone!

The view is much better, now that the railings are gone.
