Clark at Franklin | Renovation Project
Drywall Progress 2ND Floor, East
There is an old saying that April showers bring May flowers, and though the showers came, they did not stop the construction team from starting the exterior work by Exit 19 on the west side of the building. In April, our crews fought the rain to get the new entrance at Exit 19 all but complete with just a few items left to be done in May. Work in this area consisted of a new stairway and landing area for staff and residents to use to enter the building, a new sidewalk and curb to make the area safe for residents and staff to walk and new drainage to keep ice and water out of the area during the harsh winter months. This entrance will open back up to the staff and residents once the project is complete. On the 2nd floor East, progress continues with drywall being about 90% complete in the space with priming and painting starting in May. By the end of May, drywall in 2 East will be complete with crews moving into 2 West. On the 2nd floor West, mechanical, electrical and plumbing rough-in’s continue to progress on with crews working through the month of May to complete this portion of work. This past month the construction team broke the 2nd floor West area into 3 mini-phases allowing us to get inspections in areas as they are completed versus having to wait until the end of the phase. This new phasing plans allows us to keep a good flow to the project and has helped us break this large area into bite size pieces for the construction crews. Finally, on the 3rd floor West, framing is all but complete with only 1 apartment left. By the end of the month, the mechanical, electrical and plumbing contractors will begin to transition upstairs from the 2nd floor to begin on their rough-in’s. Overall, the project is tracking right on schedule and the crews will continues to work hard to keep it that way. Thank you for your continued patience and I look forward to updating you all next month! Nick Novakoski, Project Manager
