A Quick Tour Around the Outside

If you were to take a stroll around the perimeter of our building,  you will see many changes that are taking place. 

This is a giant dirt pile and deep hole that are at the end of the old hallway. 

The sidewalk and canopy that were at the end of the old hallway are now gone. 

The back steps that led to the village and play area were jackhammered this week.  If you were anywhere around Clays Mill you could have heard the noise. 

The grass has been removed from the area against the back of the building.

The blacktop that was in the back of the building has been removed.

The walkway to the temporary hallway has been torn up.

This is one of the concrete fixtures that were put into the ground on the Cardinal Lane side of the parking lot.  The unit is actually about 10 feet down and is attached to drain pipes.  The runoff from the parking lot goes through the drain pipes and then the sediment settles in the bottom of this concrete unit.  When it needs to be emptied, the manhole is opened. 

This is a view of the back of the gym and kitchen.  The outer sidewalks have been removed.

The fire hydrant that was installed last summer and then removed is now back.  It is located toward the top of the parking lot.  It will eventually be in a median.

The last of the remaining canopy and sidewalks have been removed. 

The sidewalk and railing all the way to the bus lane have been removed.

Such a different look

Piles of sidewalk rubble


The upper sidewalk and rails have been removed.  The concrete to the left is the perimeter of the new preschool playground that will be installed.
