The masons are on site today.  Cement blocks are being placed next to the footers.  The walls should be going up very soon.

When do they think that the Library will be done?

Although it was raining today, the pad for the new library was being marked off for various utility lines.

the new library has to sit high on a pile of dirt to accommodate the new indoor playgrd in the new westside library. ;D

More dirt has been added to the site.  Heavy equipment is being used to compact the new soil.

It is surprising just how high the lot has become.  In places, the lot's contour appears to be about two feet higher than the existing sidewalks along S. Schenley and Mahoning Avenue.

did they mark off the area where the indoor children playgrd will be inside the new library? :o

A few days ago I noticed that very dark soil had been shoved into piles on the library work site.  Today, I noticed that the piles (probably topsoil) were gone.  Were did the soil go?

What are you folks doing for a library?
