Thanks
ps I added a link on the Welcome Page
Njustice and Turbine thank you very much. the problem is I am zoomed out to 28 MM which is a wide angle lens. The buildings are big,...... really big. (you can't see the forest (buildings) for the trees (buildings)
Great info HelmutVII, I always look forward to your updates.
Went past the done and soon to be finished areas tonight---Just beautiful-------Any chance of some night time shots??? My wife and I were showing a young lady around on a car tour and the bike trail lights are really nice from the horticulture area to the dome and beyond!!!
Building 2 has had some dramatic progress this week. It has almost all of the roof sheeted with plywood and the plywood is almost completed felted. Exterior brick and interior work continues on building 1.
Building 1 as seen from University Ave and Hebrard Blvd Intersection. This wall got bricked this past week. They are leaving the scaffolding up so the trim carpenters can install the roof trim.

Building 1 as seen from East University. The opening on the first floor is a door. This door is about where the entrance to old Baker-Huger Hall was. Imagine old Baker-Huger stacked on top of each other with another wing almost as big (if not bigger) to the rear of it. These buildings are big.

We lucked out and got only a little over 2 inches of rain on Monday March 12 (as opposed to the 15 plus inches that Carencro got) so they were able to get almost a full week of work in. They shut down at 3:00 P.M. on Sunday and found myself locked out.
This is building 1 from the University Ave Hebrard Blvd intersection. The Oak trees are getting new leaves and they are not as thick as usual.

No photos this week. They are getting to the point of have more inside work than outside work so the visible progress was not that dramatic this week. A couple of days of rain kind of put the damper on things.
Less rain this past week allowed for more outside work to be done.
The usual starting point. University Ave facade of building 1 from Hebrard Blvd intersection. They started cleaning bricks at this corner and were working to McKinley street. the only exterior work left to do is caulking and a little painting.

Building 1 from the steps of old Saucier clinic. They cut some trees down along Boucher so you can see the buildings better this week. Ironic that the trees were cut down the week the Arbor Day foundation placed the University on the "Tree Campus USA" list. Trees removed would have been to the left and right of this photograph.

I have always loved the architecture of Randolph and Harris halls. More so Harris as it looks like a classic college residence hall look.
This is the view from the driveway to my home. You can just see the window holes in Randolph Hall through the lower branches of the oak tree to the left. The oak tress hide the huge new building behind. I am curious to see how the area changes when they occupy the buildings.

I love that the new residence halls are taking their cue from Harris Hall.
Recruiting in the academic world is about to get really fun. I pity the fool trying to get kids to go elsewhere. And when the Student Union is done.... And when Adjunct pay gets raised. OK, I got carried away.Quote:

Maybe we can then start a couple of new ones......hmmmmmmmmm............maybe the new student union construction & the new baseball grandstand construction. :D
I too, am looking forward to them being finished. It would be nice to have a little peace and quiet on the weekends. The almost constant sound of motion announciators is getting old. With at least two dozen pieces of equipment on the site and moving all the time it gets to a point that it's about the only thing you hear. I can't see how this can be a safety measure because if you hear them all the time then they are almost useless. I keep telling myself the more often they work the quicker they finish.
My neighbor has two scarlet Macaws, one of them has learned to mimic the motion announciator sound so I guess the affects of construction will linger. It's OK though, because the bird does not do it all the time and it is kind of amusing.
Student Union Construction is supposed to start sometimes this fall, so this thread could live on or morph into "Student Union Construction". Who knows.
From the pics that you say are from your driveway I can tell what neighbor you're referring too. I would often ride my bike that way when I was going to and from class. Those dang Macaws would always scare the crap out of me when I would turn on Gordon. First time I went that way I thought there was someone yelling at me on the other side of the fence. They have great mimicking skills.Quote:

A little bit different view from the Hebrard University intersection. Part of building 1 is to the left and Randolph is to the right. The middle is the far end of building 1 (the end across from the old Saucier clinic). They are starting to clean up in the courtyard area. This will be the new rose garden.

Somebody must have missed something or there is something wrong with these two precast elements.

Getting harder to find exterior work being done on the project. They have until August to be finished (just a little over four months) They will make it with the first building for sure. They second building will be close. Renovation of Harris Hall and Randolph will also be close. They haven't done much on Buchanan Hall and I'm guessing they may be saving that for last in case they run out of money or it may not be a high priority.
Cleaning up and installing drainage in the courtyard area behind building 1, Buchanan and Randolph halls. This will be the new Rose Garden area.

They opened up a rear entry to Randolph Hall. You can see through it to the rear entrance to building 1. Looking closer and you can see through to building 2 beyond and then a little bit of Harris Hall through the opening to building 2.

Building 2 University Ave facade as seen from McKinley University intersection. Building 2 is not exactly like building 1. The University Ave facade was shortened to save the two Oak trees in the photo above. They kept the same number of rooms by constructing the wing they are bricking in the photo above.
