UL Campus Improvement

[wcd35]

I looked around and didnt see the Newscopy article from The Advertiser today about the campus improvement.

Found some of the projects interesting from the side of the article:
Along with major construction projects, the university will embark on several maintenance projects this summer, including:

$470,000: renovations to academic buildings and dormitories.
$460,000: replacing the air conditioner at Mouton Hall.
$490,000: repaving the Cajun Field parking lot.
$300,000: sidewalk repairs.
$220,000: beautification and lighting project that will lead to the women's dorms.
$40,000: replacing building signs.

Should be sweet to get a nice new parking lot at Cajun Field.

Nice, I drove through the parking lot a few days ago and this will be a nice improvement. Also, I drive through campus all the time and it looks very good (both the buildings and the women ).

I can promise you that 490,000 won't pave the entire lot. Most likely will resurface the worest areas.

Good news. Dorm improvements are way, way, way overdue!

Just talked to my friend that works for LA DOT. Just to pave over is more expensive than you think!

man, I never would have thought.. I guess to do it right and cement the whole thing would break the bank!
