This week, the exterior stairs on the east and west side the building are set to be removed. The underground utilities work continues at Stent as well as the site of the new Technology Center, where they will also be excavating some existing soil.

Concrete demolition around the site and in the basement of Stent Hall continues this week. It may be noisy at times as this includes concrete chipping, jackhammering, and the use of equipment to stockpile concrete. Removal of the exterior of Stent Hall is also ongoing. Underground utility tie-in and re-routing also continue at the Technology Center. On Oct. 14, from 2:45 pm through 9:00 pm, the fire sprinklers in the Creative Arts building will be turned off for four to six hours as part of this work. During this time, the entire CADC will be closed to everyone due to fire code restrictions. Lastly, flooring, fire alarm, fire sprinkler, and cleaning work is also ongoing this week to complete the Head of School office.

The demo of Stent Hall’s exterior back wall will start this week, which may be noisy at times. Site concrete demo is ongoing around the building’s perimeter. Painting, electrical lighting, and acoustical ceiling work also continues in the Head of School’s office.
