As the tower core nears completion, the next major activity on site will be the erection of the building’s structural steel frame. This operation is scheduled to begin in the first week of May and will continue for several months. The project will be implementing a second shift, from 3 pm – 10 pm Mondays through Saturdays going forward, to maintain the project’s overall schedule.
Unrelated to the Center for Computing & Data Sciences construction, Eversource will be conducting a service upgrade that will require access to a manhole located within the site fence in the alley between Sargent College and the Bay State Road brownstones on Monday, April 26th at 11 pm. No disruption in service is anticipated.
