Steel placement on the fourth and fifth stories of the new patient tower continues after a brief interruption in January due to a steel fabrication delay. This work, originally planned to be finished this month, should wrap up in March. The delay will not impact the timeline for the overall project. Starting in mid-January, scaffolding rose to enable exterior framing, which began Feb. 11. This is the first step in creating the building’s “skin.” Inside, rough framing of patient rooms, and piping work, continues.
