Monthly Progress Meeting 7th July 09

On a swelteringly hot 7th July day with unusually high humidity, Jonathan and I attended the final monthly progress meeting before the summer shut down. Lead by Constantinos the architect, we heard encouraging reports from the main contractor as well as all the consultants and other sub-contractors. Blocks B, C and E are racing ahead and are one month ahead of schedule. We are also ahead on blocks D, F and G which means we can focus more attention on blocks A & H which are currently running slightly behind schedule. We transferred from the onsite meeting room to the sample apartments to check progress there. Having laid out the electrics and water supply in the kitchens and looked in detail at these in the 4 sample apartments, we decided to change the design of two types of the kitchens to make them more ergonomic.

In Nicosia later that week we met with the pools supplier and finessed the details of the Hydrotherapy Suite ensuring that the eventual experience of using that facility will be exceptionally relaxing and therapeutic. We have a large pool with multiple jets both in and out of the water, bubble beds, Jacuzzi, steam room and sauna and cold plunge pool. This will perfectly complement the therapist treatments available and provide the ideal relaxation after a tough session in the gym or the dance studio.

Jonathan and I spent a lot of time with the many suppliers of kitchens, wardrobes, windows, tiles and bathroom fittings finalising the selections. We are now preparing the After-Sales Choices pack for buyers and this will be sent out shortly so buyers can order colours and fixtures and fittings. So look out for this pack over the summer.
