Beam Signing Ceremony!!








The building is going up!!  After years of discussion and work, the Boyden library addition is going up!  The construction site is alive with activity, and everyday new progress is visible.  Take a quick drive by and see everything that is happening - you won't be disappointed.

We are planning a community beam signing ceremony as the steel frame approaches completion.  We invite everyone to sign one of the last beams to be erected, and be part of library history.  Date and time will be announced, depending on construction progress.  We look forward to seeing you!

Caution: Construction Zone!



 While there is still a lot of work going on inside the building, the really exciting stuff is outside.   This picture provides an excellent perspective on how deep the foundations of the new building will go.

This is a footing for the addition.  In the background, you an see where the plinth will go.  This will ultimately present a beautiful fieldstone face to the world.

This overhead view shows the back wall of the addition.  The job looks much bigger from up here!

The whole addition footprint.  It is hard to imagine that this big dirt hole is going to be a beautiful library in less than a year!
