We are building a house/studio on 19th street. Here is what it looks like so far.

This stuff goes in the foundation. I'm an expert builder, so my comments will be very detailed and accurate.

View of the slab forms from alley side to 19th street.

Cool! In the Heights. My old neighborhood. We lived on 15th and Cortlandt. NICE!

Conduits make the studio sound better somehow. Apparently running cables underground between walls is best. These tubes will be set in the foundation and cables can go from room to room through them.  
Nigel:
That sounds cool. Is it hard to get a cable fed through?
Mairi:
Apparently there is some kind of plumber tool you are supposed to use. That was my first question too.
