Saturday Work 10/30

The City of Rochester Fire Department Tower Crane rescue training team will be on site again from 8:30 a.m. to noon on Saturday 10/30. Construction crews will potentially be on site as well to continue some demolition on the current south addition from 7 a.m. to 4 p.m. but this activity is weather dependent. Both the rescue training and the potential demolition will include typical levels of construction noise.

Roof Work to Restart Monday

Work on the South Building roof that started earlier this summer will restart on Monday. Workers with flaggers will be onsite from 7 a.m. until 4 p.m. This work is expected to take roughly one week, weather permitting. Typical levels of construction noise are anticipated with these activities.

Crews will be using the same method as last time:

  • The crane will be located in the Mt. Vernon cut-out.
  • The west sidewalk and one lane of Mt. Vernon will be closed when the small crane is in use.
  • Flaggers will be on hand to direct traffic when the crane is in use.
  • Signage will indicate the sidewalk closure.

Saturday Work 10/23

Fire Department Crews from the City of Rochester will be onsite on Saturday from 8:30 a.m. to noon practicing Tower Crane rescue operations. Noise should be typical construction level noise and emergency vehicles will be onsite for this exercise.

During the week, crews will be installing the south elevation retaining wall/new exit corridor foundation wall. Excavation and grading work will also be happening during these activities.

Saturday Work 10/16

Crews will be onsite Saturday 10/16 putting in potential back fill and grading the site from 7 a.m. to 4 p.m.

During the week, crews will be working on the south elevation retaining wall and new exit corridor foundation wall. Excavation and grading work will accompany the deep foundation installations.

Construction of the ramped section of the South Access Drive to connect to Mt. Vernon is anticipated to start mid-November. Fill material will be placed in “lifts” and compacted until the final grade height is reached.
