Dumpster Enclosure

These brick workers really work fast! None of those bricks were there this morning, and two hours later they have another 4 rows in place! This is the back side (Palmer Ct Side) of the new Dumpster Enclosure. Access to the dumpsters will be through a small gated door on the Palmer Ct side and from the front/parking lot side, which is entirely opened, save for a rolling gate.

LOCUST STREET CLOSURE

Please be advised that Locust Street will be closed between 2nd and 3rd Streets the week of September 21. There will be access to the NB&T parking lot, and 2nd and 3rd Streets will NOT be blocked or closed in anyway.

Construction Progress

The concrete contractor has completed all foundation walls. They are currently working on the curb along Locust Street. Now that the foundation walls are complete, the general contractor will begin grading the site. It will appear that more work is going on now, because everything that has been done so far is underground! Storm sewer, foundation walls, stone, etc. all takes a significant amount of time to install.

Concrete Foundation Walls

The concrete subcontractor has been working on the foundation walls for the seat wall along Locust, the retaining wall in Palmer Court and the dumpster enclosure wall. Once this work is done, masonry installation will begin for these three structures.

Site grading should begin within the next week or two.

Construction Progress

The contractor has installed new curb along 2nd Street. An asphalt patch still needs to be done in front of the curb and will be done soon, but in the meantime, the spots on the East side of 2nd ARE open. HOWEVER, since the spots are slightly narrower, please be conscious of the back end of your car sticking into the lane of traffic. Park at your own risk.

The next items on the list of work include the foundations for the dumpster enclosure and the retaining wall along Palmer Ct. Work is proceeding forward according to schedule!
