The end is in sight. Most of the heavy work of constructing buildings, installing infrastructure, and laying down hardscaping (the paths, walkways, and driveways) has been done. A year ago, our teams had to battle winter’s cold as they worked inside structures without walls or complete roofs. Today, the crews get to enjoy warm, dry space as they install final finishes in our three buildings—all the flooring, drywall, plaster, cabinets, lighting, signage and more specified by the interior design team. We’re on schedule to wrap up construction on the Lodge and Council buildings in March with the Cabin following in May.
A key last step before we get occupancy is a thorough inspection by the Village and the fire department to ensure all systems are operating per the building codes and that the life safety requirements are satisfied. Then, once they put the certificate of occupancy in our hands, we’re ready to roll in the furniture, artwork, and home goods we’ll need to host gatherings. Landscaping and planting will continue in May and June as the weather warms.
The results keep exceeding our expectations. We think you’ll be dazzled when you see our new home. (We are.)
