We are into the final push at Parkview Mountain House. The radiant tubes are in for the heated driveway and walkway (essential), and the concrete is scheduled to be poured later this week. The kitchen countertops were installed this morning, and the backsplash was templated, with install scheduled for this Wednesday. The finish carpenter is back this week, and then the painters will be coming next week. The appliances and hot tub are also on standby in their respective warehouses and will be delivered to site as soon as the team is ready. As always, things are frenetic. But we're pushing to get occupancy this month. I'm also excited to announce that we just hired an excellent management company. We're in the midst of that onboarding process, and we're looking forward to starting bookings sometime this fall. If you haven't yet added yourself to our list, drop your email over here. We'll be offering a bunch of discounted bookings on a first-come, first-served basis to the people on this list.

We poured the concrete footings/foundations for Parkview Mountain House this week. Above is a photo of the pour. We're about two weeks behind schedule because of delays related to site works and excavation. (We're building into the side of a mountain.) But I'm hopeful we can make it up once we finish concrete work and move on to wood framing next month.
For those of you who like details, here's a section showing the footing and retaining wall on the back of the property facing the slope of the mountain:
Our tallest retaining wall is going to be 15 feet high, which, as I understand it, is more or less the maximum we could have done here without getting into more elaborate structural solutions (such as tiebacks). So the team spent a lot of time solving a design puzzle that involved the height of this retaining wall, the maximum allowable zoning height for the site, and our choice of established grade.
Onward. More concrete to come and then we move to wood. It's a race to get "closed in" before the snow starts up again.
