“The wind is a-blowing and the rain is a-coming!” shouted our crack on the spot reporter, Brian Baldwin. “I’m going to have to shut it down.” It was noon on Monday, February 22, 2010, and he was right. The wind speed around the New Duval County Courthouse project was blowing so hard it was unimaginable that any more work could continue. In addition, the temperature dropped 10 degrees in minutes.
Brian was talking about shutting down his hotdog stand not the courthouse construction. “It’s hard to keep a flame going!” Brian added. “Did you see the duct work?” There were visible signs of interior progress. Temporary wiring was installed to hang overhead lights. As Brian mentioned, there is plenty of duct work and now several pipes are visible to the naked eye.
This morning, the concrete was poured to complete a large portion of the second floor flooring (or first floor ceiling). A “Reinhardt” photograph clearly shows the workers completing the leveling.
