New Baker Hall on July 9, 2011. They are cleaning up the storage yard and hauling out the limestone they used to stabilize the site. They are forming up for a sidewalk along the front of the building. Finally getting to see what the finished product might look like

I love that they're trying to keep the same architectural styles as the older buildings on campus. Griffin and Wharton do the job, but they just don't look nearly as nice.
Work on the Horizon.

Somebody somewhere Somehow mentioned that where these buildings had been would be a Village concept going from the new dorms to the student Center-----This would make me think about finishing up and getting a phd in anything---Can you live in the dorms and not be a student---What a retirement idea!!!!
Band director said the band field is going to be put in next week, giving the new grass about a month to take hold before band camps starts.
The reverb is going to be HORRIBLE. I kinda feel bad for the students living in the dorm facing the field, as the band faces that way and not the parking tower.
They still haven't started with the demolition of the old dorms along University. The only dorm that still has electric power is Bonin. I suspect that once they de-energize Bonin it won't be long.

They are taking a little bit different course of construction on new Huger. I guess they learned things on Baker and are able to speed things up a little bit. New Huger is about where new Baker was in May.

New Baker on July 16, 2011. The roof vents along the top are being stored on the roof. the ones along the bottom (in a straight line) are installed.

Placing concrete for a sidewalk along the front of New Baker hall. the three boxes at the rear of the transit mix truck are visqueen. They needed it about 30 minutes later as it started to rain.

Stored Landscape materials by the parking garage. New concrete paving on the first level of the parking garage. I would suspect that they will be able to drive up and down the parking garage pretty soon.

New location for Band directors stand against the Taft Street parking garage. Looks like the band will reverse it's practice field from what it was before.

This is awesome. Can't wait to see what it looks like finished. I'm also glad to see Corona/Guillory/etc. will be gone very soon. Eyesores.
What's the status on the union renovation/expansion?
I read in some article from the Advocate that Corona and the other Ugly one, may be put on hold I believe they are having some trouble finding space for the offices.
So instead they will focus on starting remolding the inside of the union.
Will the cafeteria have to be moved for renovation? If so where will they move it too?
