Through sunny, cloudy and rainy days, construction workers have been building Milton's future city hall.

And you can watch it all happen with this timelapse video below that starts by showing a dirt lot and ends with the image of a solid framework in June 2016. The city broke ground Dec. 1, 2015.

The city hall will be in the Crabapple community and will tentatively open in April 2017.

The development is "slated to include offices, council chambers, meeting areas for residents and a town green for expansion of special events in Crabapple," according to the website.
