Twins at PowderMill update

I went by the construction site yesterday and took a few pictures.  The houses along Cayuga look like they are almost ready for occupancy.  The fence is coming down and sidewalks and driveways are being formed.  On Wingohocking, it is a little bit slower but moving along.  Along the new street that looks like it is an extension of O street running from Cayuga to Wingohocking, they are still framing some houses.
