Student Union Construction.

It's hard to tell on the cam, but it seems like they really are all gone now: looks like Olivier is just a big debris pile that will soon be hauled away.
Funny, but as good as it all looks, it really is a strange.....site. It will take a while to get used to the new look, but I look forward to that happening. ;-)

It looked as if they were trying to keep the area overlooking the lake (path) as it was cut out---hope so!!!

Photos of work done on July, 29 2015

A rare instance when the guy operating the demolition equipment was out of the cab. I think he is out of the cab only when going from one machine to another, getting something to drink or eat or to pee. (I'm also thinking the cab is air conditioned).



A little over half way through the building. They should have most of it down by tomorrow afternoon.



Hammering away at 6:30 in the evening.

Looks like they are cleaning everything up rather quickly.

yep...it also looks like they are digging up the former foundation of guillory???

I really hope the work is completed by the time I roll into UL in the next two weeks! My son loved the overlook into the lake! Looks like the foundation is almost gone.

Olivier hall still standing but barely. They had to stop and haul debris off after they demolished the entire third floor. They were getting to a point where they couldn't move.



Another shot of Olivier Hall. It really is looking better.




View to the student union is opening up.



View from the student union looking back to Hebrard Boulevard.



Yay.

I think they would be further along if one of their backhoes would not be broken.

Olivier hall debris pile getting smaller.







My chair survived. It started out on the stair landing on the north end of Corona Hall





I think this can be made a very nice place for a stage, outdoor eating and sitting.

I can't add much to your great pics, but here are a few views looking towards Boucher. It's hanging on, but barely.
