New Library Is Looking Good

Southside Library might actually be on track for a December opening. The architects' Field Report for July 10, 2006, includes: "Work in progress: Wall insulation and lath is being put on the building this week. Ducts are being run. Data runs are being installed. Power is being installed. Steel studs are being framed up. Interior walls are being framed. Roofers are working on detailing the EPDM roof. The supply and return hot water runs for the heating system are being run."

Interior walls? It sounds so imminent. Looks pretty real, too. We're starting to spend a lot of time talking about unloading and shelving those giant trucks full of materials.
