Last time we shared a construction update, the entrance archway was almost completely covered in yellow weather-proof sheathing.

This new layer of paper-backed black paneling by Phillips Manufacturing Co. is meant to control moisture and reduce air infiltration.

Only a day after this layer of sheathing was added, the entrance was entirely covered in a layer of gray plaster.

While the most obvious construction is here at the entrance, crews have also been repainting the rest of the building.
