It's all our facade

The new siding went up all along the front of the building on Thursday. Sure, there are a few spots, most noticeably the front of the clerestory, where it hasn't been installed yet, but it is there for the most part.

Exhaust fans have been installed in the restrooms. There are red caps on the fire sprinklers to protect them during construction. Red plastic electrical boxes have sprung out all over the place to hold fire sensors or alarms. Much of the building just had electrical boxes installed for ceiling light fixtures. The electrician brought in a nifty scissor lift to install them in the top of the clerestory.

The storage closet in the school office is filling up with ductwork. The latest, which looks like dryer vents on the outside, are intake and exhaust vents for a fan that moves air around under the classroom wing. An even bigger duct will act as the fresh air intake for a furnace or two.

WORK PARTY ALERT: The last five photos are a reminder that Saturday, May 16, we will need a crew to help plant the landscaping that the city of Bothell is now requiring along our north property line. Eric is organizing the crew. Check with him at church on Mother's Day or call or email him if you can help.
