Construction Continues

The first building of Storrs Center, 1 Dog Lane, now has a roof membrane in place, and the installation and pulling of electrical wires has begun.  The interior framing is complete, and the installation of mechanical components has begun.  The second building, 9 Dog Lane, is following a similar schedule, and activities are sequenced to track a week after 1 Dog Lane.

Meanwhile, work on the foundation for the parking garage continues.  Soon, work will begin on a temporary curb cut along Storrs Road (Route 195) to allow for better access to the garage site for the construction vehicles.  While the work is underway, sidewalk access between the Marketplace (Store 24 building) and Storrs Commons (Chang’s Garden) will be temporarily affected, although the sidewalk will remain open.
