Work on the first phase – Phase 1A – of Storrs Center continues with the foundations of buildings TS-1, DL-1, and DL-2.  (See the post from July 15, 2011 for a concept plan of these buildings).

The structural steel erection will begin next week at TS-1.  All of the work will be inside of the construction fence, but residents may notice an increase in truck traffic with the steel deliveries.
