Wolf Creek Lodge hosted a luncheon in the Nevada City Cohousing common room for the sub-contractors building the lodge. It was a great opportunity for the subs to meet one another, members of the lodge and project management. All left with enthusiasm and a conviction to “get the job done”
Well, the rains finally came, and we were ready for them! Our focus over the last couple of months has been to get the slabs poured and the road ready for winter so we can work through the winter rains-and we did that! As the drops started falling last month, our grading contractor was just finishing up compacting rock on the road to create a working base for construction trucks and lots of workers.
In the following pictures you can see the underground garage is in place providing the foundations for the Mcknight Way wing. The foundation is there for the Freeman Lane wing with insulation in place ready for the hydronic heating tubes for the ground floor. Preparation work is under way prior to pouring the concrete for the common areas.
Magdalene took these two pictures of the hydronic tubes being laid on the ground floor of Wolf Creek Lodge. Sure looks likely to be cozy.

Saw about a dozen wild turkeys on the property this weekend. Now that would be a locally grown, organic Thanksgiving dinner!!!!!
October’s biggest excitement occurred on the day the construction crew began pouring the concrete top of the parking garage (the podium), which is also the floor of the first floor units on the McKnigtht side of Wolf Creek Lodge Cohousing.
On a beautiful fall Saturday, Lodge residents visited their future homes. The top of the garage–the podium had just been poured, so this was the first time resident actually walked on their own subfloors (the slab). You can begin to really appreciate the great views these homes will have.
The crew has been busy putting in stormwater, fire and water lines, digging footings for the East Wing foundation, installing the plumbing that runs under the slabs and beginning to prep the site for upcoming rains
Progress on the Wolf Creek Lodge Cohousing buildings continues full steam ahead. Last week they poured the slab for the parking garage. Now, on to the podium above!
