Demolition Of Main Building - Day Four
"Progress is evident, but at the pace of human effort"
The main building has been brought down to ground level. There are few bits to knock down, which will be done on Monday. At this stage what comes next is clearing all the rubble and getting the site ready for the concrete foundation to be broken up and also cleared away. Next week will also involve clearing all the plants and trees on the plot. The plants/flowers that form part of the wall will remain until it is absolutely necessary. They will eventually be removed, but at the moment they serve a good purpose.
I need to chase up on State Housing Company on when I can get my approval on the architect drawings. I will need to get these done at least by mid week and then dump my application for building permit with the Labadi branch of the Accra Metropolitan Authority.
Fortunately for me, I am staying in the boys quarters for as long as possible. The Boadi, the building contractor would like to deal with clearing everything related to the main building first before tackling the boys quarters. I will have to start packing as much stuff into the shed by the end of next week.
