Our drywall crews are moving their way through the apartments and as we pass inspections we have the painters following right behind. We should be close to finishing all the drywall in the next few weeks. Our painters have also been prepping the existing door frames as we wait to hear on a color choice from the architect. The wood doors were delivered this past week and the metal doors are scheduled for delivery this week.

We worked with the City to get our rough-in issues resolved and passed our plumbing and HVAC inspections. We have crews working on insulation, sheetrock, and fire caulking and will have inspections for those towards the beginning of the month. We should be ready to paint in a couple weeks. The fire alarm control panel was recently installed along with a new handicap ramp out by the street.

All Apartments in Phase 1 (113-119, 213-219, 313-319, 413-419) are finished framing, rough in electrical, rough in plumbing (waste and vent as well as water lines), door frames installed and ready for sheetrock. However, we have run in to a few unforeseen conditions and requests from the City regarding the design that need to be addressed before we can move to the next stage of the project. We are trying hard to resolve those concerns so we can start sheetrock in the next week. The stair lift is scheduled to be installed in 5 weeks, H/C ramps and truncated domes next week. The painter is going to start preparing all of the existing door frames in the next couple of days. The condensing unit platforms on the roof started to be framed yesterday. We will be complete with rough in fire alarm by 1/17/14.

City inspections scheduled throughout this week.
