Now that we are back in the Sanctuary work has focused primarily on Zone D (Chapel to Spitzer Building)
– Masons have worked on the gable roof for the new, smaller Fellowship Hall
– Framing inside of Zone D for various offices/spaces
The Schedule shows that concrete should be poured and foundations laid into the elevator pit beginning next week and continuing through Dec 5.
 
We also completed a water inspection of the basement to determine if we had any flooding.  In the past the church normally had water infiltration in the basement.  Following the hard rains of the past 2 days the church is dry.  This is due to various water mitigation efforts over the course of the project.
