It's been a busy few days, and a lot of the remaining tasks have been finished. The first three pictures show the status of the back wall last Saturday, with one section still needing the brickwork. Note the superstructure on the roof supporting the scaffolding.
On Monday, there was a lot of activity on the roof.
By late this afternoon, work was completed on several fronts. I hope the lighting in the pictures
isn't too distracting; it was late afternoon and the sun was shining brightly
when i got the chance to take these pictures.

| The plywood forms have been removed, revealing the new section of the retaining wall |
 |
| The sun was low and shining so strongly late this afternoon that reflections from the windows of the apartment building next to the worksite made this odd pattern of light on the new section of the wall. |

| A sure sign that the work is finished on the trackside wall: the scaffolding and related superstructure has been removed. |
