Current Status
The design for the project was completed by CTA Engineering in April 2022. Since the buildings are more than 50 years old, coordination with the State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO) was required. This process has been completed. The field survey is ongoing. The Notice to Proceed for the General Contractor was issued in March 2022.
