? We finally continue the report that was started on 11/16/09 and 11/18/09, about the new greenhouse that will connect to the East Crescent heat-duct tunnel [see information on the heat-duct tunnel project starting with 7/13/09 report with intermittent postings up to 11/11/09].

The construction crew started assembly of the ribs for the greenhouse.

? At the site for the greenhouse, below the pool, posts have been installed and imbedded in concrete.

? And the first ribs have been put into place.
This 20' wide x 48' long greenhouse, more specifically called a "High Tunnel," is an unheated, plastic-covered structure that provides an intermediate level of environmental protection and control compared to open field conditions and heated greenhouses.
This report continues on 12/29/09.
