December Project Updates:

The project has really taken shape over the past month.  There are approximately 70-80 workers on site daily.  Sections of the work area are being enclosed to allow for work to continue throughout the winter.  You will also see areas covered by blankets to keep the cold out, one of the challenges of winter work in Maine.  Below are some updates on the work that is currently occuring.

Area F - Over the past month steel erection, exterior sheathing and roofing has been on-going in the Cafeteria, and Lecture Hall areas.  Interior metal stud partition framing, plumbing and HVAC piping are continuing. Windows will begin to be installed over the next few weeks.
