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.
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.

New Baker hall on 6-18-11. A precast double "T" floor slab section is being delivered for the parking garage. Less and less material and storage units on this part of the site. They are starting to complete the drainage culverts and inlets. You can really see the difference between the cleaned and uncleaned brick work.
Cleaning the brick veneer. Note the arches at the entrance. They will be placing concrete for the entry porch soon and then placing decorative columns around the steel in the foreground. The decorative columns are stored on site.

Parking garage on 6-18-11
Ready to lift a precast double "T" section.
Flying it into place. Note the guy on the ground with a tag line. Good thing it wasn't too windy today.
Almost there and ready to catch.
Muscling the section into place. Safety inspector must be off today, he doesn't have his yellow vest on.
There it is.
They will be building out the middle section and the west section together because the crane won't have enough room to swing.
