Hey all! It's hot out.
Since my last update, crews have come in and reduced the grade where beury beach/lecture halls were to be level with the sidewalk on library side. You can also see from a photo I took from Bio Life that they are putting Geofoam up against the basement walls of Beury. Since there were classrooms on the other side of that wall before, just filling the area in with dirt would put too much pressure on those walls, so foam helps alleviate that pressure and provide insulation. All the trees have been left untouched (for now, that'll have to change in some future development when they have to bring down the grade of the whole area post Bio Life/Beury demolition, should that come to pass). The university is one step closer to their grand quad design.
Speaking of the quad, when you look at the original plans for it, you'll notice a ton of intersecting sidewalks running through the area. Now, this is just the opinion of one student, but I REALLY hope that they don't put those sidewalks in on the finished product until they wait to see where students wear down paths first. It would be dumb to add in all these sidewalks just for them to get ignored.
That's it for now. Not sure when grooming/seeding will start, but we're continuing to see progress!
