Project Completion, Courtyard, and Demolition

Since we are getting closer to the end of this project (hooray!), I wanted to update you on what the following months will look like...

1. We are currently doing demo on the last part of the building to be demo'd (hooray again!)

2. After the hoist joints are repaired, all new windows will receive child protective stops, screens, and inspection.

3. Floors 1-3 will have caulk joints replaced around the windows. These floors will also have its brick joints ground down and fixed in preparation for the brick on these floors to be cleaned and sealed.

4. Soon after the ReCladding Project is complete (our intent is to be done by the end of January, keep praying...), we will again have access to the courtyard porch area, the grills, the courtyard side-walks, pool, and side gate.

5. Also, after the ReCladding Project is complete, DTS will be working on renovating and fixing the damaged landscape and sod in the courtyard and around the building. Some of the work will have to wait until later in the Spring. For this reason, there will be times when portions of the courtyard will be off limits; but we should still have access to the porch area, grills, pool, and side gate. I will give more details at that time.

In the meantime...

1. Continue to stay out of the courtyard unless there is an emergency (see signs on doors)

2. Continue to pray for the safety of the workers and to give thanks for the progress that we have made.
