A couple of quick notes regarding both renovation updates and new furniture arrivals, first the renovation. There are still some issues being worked out with fire alarms and lighting so the stairwell changeover will probably not happen until the week of May 2nd at the earliest, I'll keep you informed. Everything else is still moving along, we are looking at a Monday after hours water shut-off, but more details to come on that as well. Tile work and plumbing fixtures will happen soon in the new restrooms and a cover was placed on the plumbing array outside today, which looks much nicer.
The ramp off the dock is expected to get started by next week. Another important note; the construction crew are making an effort to keep the dust down as much as possible. In addition to trying to maintain their seal integrity around the temp walls, they are also vacuuming the books in the basement to try and help with clean up.
Regarding furniture arrivals today; much of the new staff lounge furniture came in, we are still missing one sofa, 4 chairs and the accent table replacements. They are expected on May 3rd. We've added some cafe type tables for more eating space and the staff chairs are for use when we have big events. I hope everyone enjoys.
In the middle of the basement is more furniture that we needed to receive early before cut-off. This will be put in place over the next several months but at this time we want to leave them boxed and safe until we are ready to deploy.
Hoppy Easter everyone!
