Construction on the new library site is definitely looking more vertical this week. Five truckloads of steel and roofing and floor joists were unloaded on the secondary site which is the east side of Hobble Creek. Loads have been broken down and are being moved to the west to sequence in the construction project. A crane arrived on Tuesday and has been assisting in setting columns and beams. This work begins on the east side of the project.

Elevator shafts have topped out at 32 ft., heating and cooling ducts are under slab and work with under slab electric cable lines continues. Main Street curb and gutter work is 80% complete. The sidewalk along Main has been removed to allow future forklifts to bring in needed brick and stone for the exterior. Deck on basement is complete. The building perimeter concrete is now fully visible.
