I've got the "deck", you bring the BBQ.

I stopped by the house today to check on things, and it appears that the 1st floor 'deck' is all done. The beams are hidden, the joist belong to the basement and there are no holes to fall through!  Except the opening for the stairs that head down to the basement. The back fill and sewer tie-in has also been completed.

Here are those basement steps, re-used from the original house. Just turned 180 degrees, which will allow for a large foyer area.
