Real Progress: Cabinetry Arrives

KChaletzky — Mon, 31 Mar 2014 03:26:46 +0000

The pace is really picking up as the new HVAC system was turned on and the cabinetry arrived. The break room and work station installation has begun. And under the white protective mats are the refinished wood floors and new vinyl in the hallways. You will also notice that the new lighting has been installed. Yet, with all the modernity, an effort has been made to preserve the history of the building. Note the original pressed tin ceiling in the break room. It’s wonderful to see everything coming together. Plans are for the staff to move in before the end of April!
