Finishing Touches for Wellness Center
Don’t blink. You might miss yet another construction milestone being met at the Wellness and HealthSpring Fitness centers.
Over the course of just two weeks’ time, for example, landscaping plants will be installed around the building. “It’s going to look very different once the landscaping is in,” noted Ray Green, project manager.
On the interior of the Wellness Center, “finish work” — carpets, ceilings and wood trim — is nearly done on the second and third floors. The Wellness Center should be certified for occupation sometime between Memorial Day and June 3, Green noted.
On the HealthSpring Fitness Center side of the building, flooring installation is nearly complete on the second and third floors, and tile work in the locker rooms is under way.
In the natatorium, plaster will be applied to the pools and tile work completed, and then the pool’s walkway surface will be finished. The canopy roof on the building’s entrance was tilted up the last week of April, and all parking lot curbs have been poured and shaped.
This week, workers will begin constructing a large wood design feature for HealthSpring’s lobby. This project is expected to take two weeks, Green noted.
June 6 is a big day for HealthSpring Fitness Center. That’s the day five large trucks arrive on campus, packed with all the center’s fitness equipment. Plans call for having all the equipment off-loaded and installed, plugged in and working by June 10, Green noted.
