Basement

Basement level after demolition.  The columns at the far end were excavated down to the footing to confirm their structural integrity.  Additional loads from new construction would be placed on upper floors.  The basement columns had to support this additional weight.

The hose is pumping out water from the excavated column, that had seeped in from the water table.
