Work has started on the interior Lobby wall footings. The weather and ground conditions have been quite favorable, so this aspect is ahead of schedule. Back filling has been done around many of the foundations. Excavation has started for foundations in the Lobby area. Much back filling has been done around the foundations for the Concert Hall area.
Excavation continues for foundations in the south section of the building.
The parking area is paved with the starter course, except for a 20-foot section at the north end. This is undeveloped to allow space for construction equipment. The finish course will be done in spring 2002. If the weather cooperates, they are optimistic that all foundations and piers will be ready for the steel in January. This aspect is several weeks ahead of schedule.
