I guess it might have been about 3 or 4.

Does anyone know what the plans are for the area that these dorms occupy once demo is complete?

More new dorms.

Demolition of Huger, Baker, Bonin and Evangeline should start in earnest next week. Griffin would not have moved two large pieces of equipment on site just to let them sit.

New Baker on left, Hamilton to the rear and middle and New Huger (I assume) on right.

Mc Kinley street facade on June 11, 2011. The guys in the lift are placing high performance caulking in the joints between the precast panels.

This is exciting.

Thanks for the weekend update.

I found out today that D-Day for completion of new Baker and the Parking Garage is August 11. It aught to be interesting to see if they make it.

Major disruption if they don't as the Housing office already has people scheduled to be living in new Baker. Given what I've seen from this contractor and the talk around campus, would really surprise if they don't meet their deadline.

Asbestos removal continues at Old Baker, Huger, Bonin and Evangeline so not too much to see there. I am assuming the second dorm being built behind Hamilton is New Huger hall I will call it that until I know otherwise. These are some photos of that building

Hamilton Hall is on the right with the parking garage in the middle and to the rear

New Huger hall at the corner of Tulane and Taft

New Baker on the left Hamilton to the rear and middle and new Huger on the right. The brick work on New Baker is almost finished. I saw about 6 airless paint sprayers either finished or ready to go and there were some ceiling fans installed on the fourth floor.
