Building...


A new building is being erected near me. It will be interesting to watch it go up - see the construction methods and watch it take shape... the instability of the permafrost requires that all of the buildings are constructed upon a foundation of steel piles driven into the earth.

  2. ... i'm not sure what they're building - some guy said he thought it was a Jehovah Witness's church (maybe they'll convert me...:)

    Hydro comes from a diesel generating station. What they could use up here is a hydro-electric dam.
