When the parking lot was built in 2002 it seems the contractor didn't use treated lumber. Take nine years of Illinois weather and most of the fence was being held together with nothing but paint. The fence replacement project started with the demolition help from the Kraft Foods volunteers at the beginning of the month. Then Andy and Rob took on the task of digging 55 new post holes and nailing on 165 new fence boards. This time the fence was built right. Not only did they use treated lumber but every post is sitting in concrete. Check the blog in nine years and we'll see how this fence is fairing.
