Restoration and development in the East End of London

Since 2004 I project managed developments in London from acquisition to completion. Below are posts taken from a blog that I started in 2006 as an online resource for developers in the East End of London. The articles below intend to show the breadth of my experience from managing timeframes and budget on a wide range of projects from restorations to new builds and to highlight the socio economic responsibilities that developers have. The posts are in no particular order and are unedited

Footings

In the foreground of this picture you can see reinforced concrete running across the trench - this was part of a WWII shelter that was built.

This corner of the foundation proved to be the most challenging - nearby trees, sub standard soil with sulphates present, clay, high water tables it was all going on here :-)
