Cement Molds

For a while now, I'd known that a new building was being put up in the center of town, but I wasn't sure of the details. At first, I thought it was the typical wood frame buildings, yet the frames were very strange...not at all like the usual buildings. As it turns out, the wood structure being put up were the molds for cement. Ah! Now it all makes sense! Indeed they were for walls, but cement walls not wood! I had been rather worried since the wood structure didn't look all that secure. =P They just filled up the space between the wood and instant wall! After the cement cured, the wood was dismantled and that's it! All done. It was like a grand version of sidewalk molds. From the looks of it, that first level they made will be a street level garage while an apartment building (or stores?) will be built above.
