December 27 Building Progress Southside Library is really coming along. Still flat, nothing rising up into the air yet, but the whole thing looks, well, real. The architects notes for this week say, "Work in progress: a. Structural concrete at the interior of the building is complete, and the radiant piping is in place at the south side of the building. b. Electricians are installing the conduit for below-slab locations. c. Locations have been laid out for columns outside the heated area of the building."

December 19 Radiant Tubing & Rebar Grid This week's notes from the architect: "a. Concrete is being placed for column bases on the interior of the slab and some on the perimeter. b. Rebar grid has been set and some of the radiant tubing has been placed in the south part of the slab. Tomorrow, the base course will be placed on the north side of the slab, and the rebar grid will be set over that. c. The concrete subcontractor will close the footprint of the building. There is a portion of the stem wall that has been left open for vehicular access."

December 13 Progressing in Winter Weather This week Administration met with the architects to make final decisions on colors for both exterior & interior. (Even though the future interior, or any color but mud brown and concrete grey, is a bit hard to imagine at this point.)

December 5 Still Readying for the Slab... The crushed rock in this photo is to go under the slab. One hundred fifty conduits will be laid in the crushed rock before the pour, 100 of them for the data room.
