Incredible Progress At The Grove Spa Resort - 12th May 2009

Progress 12th May 2009

Construction is moving ahead very rapidly at The Grove Spa Resort with swarms of workmen busy on site. The basements of residential blocks B, C, D and G are completed and construction has moved up to the ground floor level. The forest of reinforced steel and non-stop pouring of concrete is shaping the rest of the underground level, including the supports for the ground level pools and the layout of the Spa facilities.

The rapid pace of construction and large scale of the project requires top quality supervision and control and this is the team from GCC responsible for keeping the site under control and on time: From left to right: the site foremen Aristotellis Aristotelous and Christos Ioannou; the Project Manager Nick Iacovou and the project engineers Yiannis Stephanides and Nicos Zachariou.

Further Update From The Grove Spa Resort Construction Site

We have a mass of photographs coming through from the Grove Spa Resort site as our intrepid operations manager, Jonathan Fairhurst, known in the company as "Nanook of the North" has been on-site all week.

This is his latest report today:

As you'll see there is a huge amount of activity today on both plots. The membrane has been laid under the Spa building and Blocks E & F and GCC were in the process of pouring the concrete on top.

The temporary wooden boundaries to the rear of Blocks C & D were also being erected. The concrete base for the lifts had been delivered and were being manoeuvred into position. On Plot A, the initial concrete base had been completed and the steel reinforcement was being constructed - this was mostly done for Block B.

Have a great weekend
