More visits to senior design partners

Today was another trip to Tel Aviv to meet with students and their professional partners.  I took the train to Savidor Station and we went to the first site.
 
Dr. Igal Shochat and Itay Yacovi with his project site in the background.
We met with Amir Nahum, the president of Ortam-Malibu Group (major construction company) who announced he is giving BGU three scholarships.  Then we went to the last site, which is a high-rise apartment building under construction.  We went up in the construction lift, and then walked up another five flights of increasingly difficult stairs.  The last set, I needed a hand because the footing was so unsteady.  We were up on the present top of the building, on the 14th floor, standing on rebar or whatever.
Igal, the professional (in black), student blocked by Igal.  The background shows part of the Bat Yam cemetery, which is huge.
View to the east - you can see the Mediterranean in the background.
While Igal was driving, I snapped a photo of the site we were up on two weeks ago.  We were up on the floor by the higher safety netting.
The return trip was from Bat Yam (Komemiyyut) north to Tel Aviv (HaHagana), then change to the train south to Beer Sheva (Center).
