Design-Build Studio Summer 2011

The heat and mosquitoes won't stop us! The goal for our team is to have the main structure completed by the end of this week. Yes, that means tomorrow, Friday, the 15th of July. As our team gets prepared for our Happy Hour presentation at The Market Place (20 Wall Street) this evening we decided it would be better to have half the group working on developing the design drawings and details while the other half battled the heat of the beginning of the week on site.

Both inside and out, great progress was made. The skeleton of the north wall has been fully erected, the frame for the south wall has been built up and set into place. The floor, made from salvaged wood, is looking great and will be sturdy enough for the most rambunctious dancing that could possibly go on! --Bring it on DeWayne!!

The next steps will be to set the rafters and place the purlins on the rafters, so that our roofing material can be supported.Things are heating up out on site. Please stop by to see the progress and also come out to The Market Place TONIGHT from 5-7pm for our Happy Hour fundraiser!! A portion of the drink purchases will be donated to the project. We are still trying to raise $4,000 for the completion of the project so come on out!!

CHEERS!
