March 17
When the old building was torn down, there was a gap in the cliff
where the old steps used to exit the old top shop. Now the architects
need that cliff raised to be level with the grade of the path from
the bridge. To get the large rocks up to the top of the cliff (a
height equal to the third floor of the building), crews use a crane
to lift the boulders into place.
|

March 17
After the crane lifted the rock to the top of the cliff, the crew
set the stone in place.

The steel framing is going up to form the exterior walls on the

" We went to Grandfather Mountain today. It was really really cold but that didnt stop the fun. The wind was blowing so hard
that it sounded like the bridge was singing. It would be really neat if you could put a video clip of Grandfather Mountain's singing
Mile High Bridge :D The view is amazing!!!! As we were leaving we even made some friends. There were about six wild deer crossing
the road we stoped and took pictures and to our amazment one of the deer walked right up to the window and just stared at us for
about ten min. Overall Grandfather Mtn. is well worth the price you pay. Thanks!!!!
