With foundations complete, installation of underground utilities in and around the building site will begin. Water, sewer, storm water and electrical lines crisscross underneath the first floor to distribute service through the building. Plumbers will be working to ensure that sewer and storm lines have proper “fall” to the municipal utilities buried in 7th Street and College Avenue. EV has been working closely with the City of Holland to coordinate utility work so none of the new road work will be disturbed once complete. Once the underground utilities on the first floor are placed and inspected, EV will prep the building for the steel structure.
In December, EV will also expand the footprint of our work area by taking over a portion of 7th Street and College Avenue. We will move our perimeter fencing to accommodate more construction equipment including our crane for steel installation. The expanded work area will allow our teams to move around the building and stay safe from passing vehicles. Finally, look out for fun Christmas decorations at the project site as we join downtown Holland in showing some holiday cheer!
