Hydraulic boom lifts allow construction workers to get to otherwise unreachable areas

View of the recently installed glass panes from directly below the atrium window

Some of the scholar carrels have already been walled in with sheetrock

Columns have begun to appear as more and more sheetrock goes up

In what will be one of the public restrooms, the plumbing juts out through the new sheetrock

View of the underside of the roof of the southern end of the new wing

Close-up of the slate tiles that are being installed on the roof

New windows have been cut into the lower level for what will be the Curriculum Center

The bricklaying on the northern side of the new wing has been completed

The large, open areas on the western side will eventually be covered with a series of windows

The southwestern corner is blanketed in scaffolding as the brickwork continues

On the southern side, panels of insulation are still being installed

THE TAR MONSTER!!!
