Upcoming Milestones
November 6: Have the building in the dry
November 22: Turn temporary heat on
Project Update Over the past two weeks, work on the exterior of the building has turned a corner literally & figuratively. TL Masonry moved to setting the brick façade on the north and south elevations. The bulk of their crew is working on the north elevation, which will complete by the end of this week. The other part of their crew is finishing the southeast corner of the east elevation. This will put the brick at 75% completed by the end of the week. While TL Masonry continues to push forward, Vos Glass has joined us on-site to install aluminum frames in the punched openings at the northeast corner, working their way south along the east elevation. Mikalan Roofing also started on-site this week; they are installing the roof insulation and TPO membrane and have covered about 40% of the roof in one week. At this pace, we will have a majority of the roof complete by our next update. The interior of the building continues to push along as well. Allied Electric and Van Dyken Mechanical are laying rough-ins above the ceiling and below the access floor on floors two and three. Total Fire Protection has completed the third floor main and branch lines fire suppression system and moved down to the second floor. While the other MEP trades are working on floors two and three, Godwin Plumbing has been busy with the roof drain and venting lines. These two vertical elements need to be run before the rest of Godwin’s work can begin. Finally, Elzinga & Volkers is installing the temporary wall partitions, in place of the front-building west windows, to get the building in the dry.
