Yup! Frozen ground thaws out in two weeks, and time is made up just by saying-so. Piece of cake!

I'm sure the project has a well-versed construction manager who has put together a reasonable schedule--it's not like winter is an unanticipated condition in Detroit. At least the excavating contractor doesn't have to worry about undermining any adjacent buildings.
