We were given initial notice of this, through a number of fliers and people knocking on our door, over 6 months ago. The initial estimate of work was early October ... two months behind schedule is nothing, apparently, for a project like this.
Thankfully we haven't found things to be too bad, probably because I am across the street. Having walked by the big dig at 27th & Calvert I predict the worst will come as they start to bang lots of large metal supports into the ground (is that what they started doing today?)
