Doug Verdier's Mid-May 2020 Water Works Photos

Editors Note: Mill District resident Doug Verdier continues to document the progress of the Water Works project.

It took only about 30 minutes to connect and lift the HVAC mechanical package from the trailer to the roof of the Water Works Pavilion, but the task required patience and precision.

Workers attached cables to each corner of the HVAC unit.

The lift itself went smoothly, with several workers both on the ground and on the roof guiding and making sure the unit was placed exactly where it was supposed to go and in the correct orientation.

New sidewalk and ramp along the First Street edge of the future South Plaza.

Lower portion of ramp from First Street level of South Plaza to vicinity of new main entrance of Pavilion.

Another view of the ramp and sidewalk from First Street level.

New stone arch main entry to Pavilion under construction. Remind anyone of the Stone Arch Bridge?
