Construction Meeting September 20, 2007

Library underpinning is complete; the existing building is safe and secure. Excavation for the addition will now start in earnest. Unfortunately, the digging will displace the sewer line – so bathrooms will be out of service for at least 30 days. The old parking lot will also be dug up to make way for new utility lines.

Parking will be in the new “upper lot” along Pleasantville Road. Entry to the Library will be routed through the park and down the stairs to the front door. If you are unable to negotiate the staircase, we would be happy to meet you with your materials in the lot. Please call ahead from home-or from you car. We continue to keep our regular hours!

The Big Dig

Well - this is big for us! The old piers that held up the modular, the front walkway, and parts of the parking area are now in a heap in front of the Library. Underpinning of the foundation should begin this week.
