Wall should be finished tomorrow. This is after 5 days of work. Erecting the wall is just the start. We still need to fill the hollows with concrete, waterproof the back, insert drainage pipes, fill behind with aggregate and top it off with a surface drain. There will not be much change from $100k when finished.
