Fun times at the ‘Alley House 2’ jobsite on Capital Hill today, courtesy of visionary developer Cascade Built. Four prefabricated modules that comprise the house were delivered by Method Homes. The process of setting into place began around 11 am. First, the shrinkwrap gets removed:

Misc. prepwork. View into kitchen area.

Somewhat of a crowd assembled…including a KOMO news crew.

The hoist begins

Guys use tie ropes to orient the module as needed

Up and over the neighboring trees

Almost in place

Up on the site, crew assemble to guide the module into place

Carefully ‘threading the needle’ – over pre-installed holddowns

First module is set! Three more to come…but I have to head back to the office – I’m swamped these days. More later.
