The next stage of structural work is underway at Woolworth as crews begin cutting through the existing concrete slab. This process is necessary to support the installation of new stair shafts and to reinforce the foundation below to guarantee a solid base.
With the first layer of slab removed, crews exposed the earth beneath, clearing the way for excavation. Once complete, a new slab will be poured to anchor the forthcoming stairwell.
Open section shows where slab has been cleared for excavation.
