Lots of air conditioning ducts this week going up

Most of the obvious changes this week were a little hard to take a picture of without the good camera (aka the camera with a flash). The air conditioning ducts are in place which is very important since we hope to open mid summer.

The view of the whole building from the front.


Detailed tilework view in the columns of the entrance



The preparation for the tilework on the back of the building, which will be the same as the tile at the main entrance once that's put in place.



Two photos showing the southwest corner of the building. The crane is there to put up the awning that will be over the drive-through window.



The program room for adults


The computer lab from one corner where the windows will be.

Getting closer....

The walls are almost completely painted and most of the windows are in. Take a look!

The main entrance now has sliding glass doors.


Looking in from the main entrance. Straight ahead towards the windows is where the Adult area will be.

Week thirty-two: Interior painting starts

Although I wasn't able to sneak in and get pictures of the interior painting going on, I've been told it's moving briskly. It's estimated that the new library will be opening in July. Keep your eyes posted on our blog to find out more specifics as the time grows closer.

The front entrance is mostly done - there will be tilework going up on the grey part of the entrance. Hopefully next week there will be a picture of that.

Here's the main entrance from two different angles:

The painting is almost complete

Here are some views of the outside walls. With a couple of exceptions, the painting is just about complete!
