Easter Vandals

Vandals have been on the site. They took down the formwork from the textured wall and decided to take out the timber inserts that formed the openings. They must have attacked the first one from behind and forced it out through the front of the wall - it blew a big chunk of the textured concrete off. Seeing the damage caused obviously incited them to have a go at the second opening in the same way. Likewise the front face of the textured concrete was damaged.
According to the English Neighbour the vandals bore a remarkably uncanny likeness to the builders.
The Skater accused The Architect of not doing his job properly. He reckons that The Architect should be on site more often to stop this sort of thing happening. He's not happy. He thinks The Architect is loosing his grip of the situation.
The site is now empty. Maybe the vandals are too shameful to come back. Maybe they are off for an Easter break. They certainly aren't answering their phones. The Architect only manages to reach overloaded answering machines with multi track pre-recorded messages subtly mixing grunts and noises of small children doing unimaginable things. The Architect is considering spending all his waking hours on site. A live blog. A blow by blow account.

divisé en trois éléments principaux:
