By the way, what is that blue mesh hanging off the 4th Ave flyover?

I would guess it's there so any chunks of concrete don't fall onto kids at the playground underneath it

Kids are so bubble wrapped these days. No thrill of timing the swing just right to avoid falling debris.

Not a lot of change since the last update, but there are some windows installed. Anyone working on the interior today is thankful for those windows.

I wonder how noisy this place will be. Hopefully there's going to be some sound dampening in those walls facing the flyover and Memorial Drive

Being wood frame, the noise problem will come from the building tenants themselves.

When you look at that photo, the cars look as if they are 5 feet away. There will be some car noise for sure.

They ever replace that tether ball at the park there?

My dog mayyy or may not have accidentally popped it the first time we went there. I hadn’t yet realized her affinity for popping anything that might be poppable

Quite small windows and then they’re going to put that screening around the building. Those units might seem a bit dark.

I’m wondering if it will be the same materials shown in the rendering? I pray it’s not the usual hardie board panels and vinyl siding.

Kind of an embarrassing project for that location if you ask me.

Lol I'm holding my judgment until we see the screening and lighting...
