Text in graphic says ACPL Construction Corner. Meeting Room. So far... ACPL's Meeting Room has gone through the demolition phase. Goodbye old & stained carpet! What's next? The Meeting Room will be used for storage/staging while the crew works on other areas. Three photos depict the meeting room in its current state from various angles. There are lights hanging from the ceiling. There are ladders and pallets throughout. There are metal beams along the walls framing new walls. There is an uncarpeted floor that looks like it may be concrete with carpet glue.
Text in graphic says ACPL Construction Corner. Activity Center. So far... There has been a lot of activity on the front of the building for the future home of the Activity Center. What's next? More exterior work. Four photos depict a construction vehicle next to a large pile of dirt, the patio area on the north side of the building where the activity center is being built, a construction vehicle with its digging aparatus in a large hole, and an area with some walls being framed out.
Text within graphic says ACPL Construction Corner. Misc Extras. Text captioning photos says Above: A ramp and an alcove were added to the building to serve as a temporary entrance during construction. Right: Sadly, ACPL lost one of its favorite trees due to frost damage. We said a fond farewell to this great tree. Left: Wow, could there be more design decisions during construction. Four photos depict the new ramp and alcove during their construction, the new temporary entrance during its construction, the tree with white bark and black stripes that was on the northwest side of the building, and Caitlin and Rachel holding a sample book trying to make decisions.
