During the week of July 6th

- The electrical transformer arrived on site and has been set. The focus will now turn to installing cables and coordinating with the utility company to liven up the power service to the site.
- At the mock-up (766 Commonwealth Avenue parking lot), installation of all the façade materials has been completed, crews will now be installing final sealants and cleaning the mockup prior to review by the University and city officials over the next few weeks.
- As activity in and around the site begins to increase, please be aware of all directional signage, as pedestrian travel paths may be altered.
