Progress Continues

The hammering and sawing and continuous noise emanating from the clubhouse, including semi trailers and trucks running up and down Burning Tree Drive all day can only mean great progress is being made.  Let’s have a look. 

The south entrance to the clubhouse is now under roof and there are stairs and a ramp for access.  The doors have been removed from the cart barn and the ceiling tiles removed as work begins out there. 

Above is a view from the hallway looking through the new casual dining space out to the new covered patio. 

This is the view into the golf shop from the casual dining space. 

The outdoor covered patio is now covered!  

The HVAC installers continue the miles of ductwork throughout the club. This is looking at the ceiling in the old main dining room space.  Notice the new, larger windows on the left side.

Here’s a look out one of those windows.  The bridge over Mary’s pond will help you get your bearings. The main section of the covered dining space is to the left. 

The House of Four Gables

From the clubhouse putting green you can see the roof going up over the outdoor dining space. The gable within will have a window allowing natural light to filter in.  

As our architects informed us early on, there are two kinds of skylights…those that leak and those that will leak.  The gable with the window accomplishes the same goal without the leakage.  As mentioned last time, this gable also will hide the flat roof behind it with the new HVAC equipment. Gables are being added in other locations on the roof to balance the aesthetic design, provide visual interest, and continue the camouflage of air conditioning equipment. See below. 

Speaking of gables, “Frankly my dear, I think it’s going to look great!”

Raise the Roof!

The roof trusses have arrived and installation has begun.  They started today over the new covered verandah. 

The roof may seem high but the intent of the high gable is to hide the new hvac equipment which will go on the roof behind it. 

What is a “Nana Wall”?

You have heard us refer to “nana walls” in this blog and we’ve shown you where they are going to go, but just what are they?  First of all “NanaWall” is a company and like calling all tissues, “Kleenex”, not every folding accordion glass door wall is necessarily a NanaWall. But that is what we are talking about-a folding accordion glass wall. In the picture below there will be three sections of folding glass doors between the outdoor dining space and the indoor dining space. You can see two of them in the picture but the third is partially hidden by construction equipment. 

So think of this picture as the “before” and the ones that follow as an example of what the “after” can look like.  The three pictures take you through a fully closed door to a partially opened door to a fully open door. 



Nice, right?  

Progress report

Lots going on…..just pics to enjoy 

Here is the new bar space with the freshly poured exterior wall up

Another view of the same thing.

The concrete crew is removing the forms on the new patio dining area roof support. 

Anyone want a fresh cocktail? All the underground chases are in their perfect spots for the new bar. 

Here is the new front entrance with the 2 double doors all framed in, and the area is ready for concrete. 

This new opening will be the lobby service bar. Formerly the F&B office. 

Lady’s locker room is starting to get framing. 

As all the work to the super structure has been happening, mechanicals have been put in place as well. These are the new AC ducts waiting for instillation. 

Our Contractor has been making steady progress and things are looking great! You can really see the new building in your mind’s eye.
