Getting Started

While most of the students were on summer break, Alberici set out to complete a few important campus alterations to help improve traffic flow. These traffic "improvements" were necessary considering a 30,000 SF theater and classroom addition is set to be constructed on property to the Northwest of the existing campus. The driveway connecting the west drive and the Lockwood loop parking area was closed permanently. Because of this, the plan called for a widening of the loop drive to accommodate two way traffic. In the back, a new driveway was constructed connecting the student parking lot with Garden Avenue, providing more flexible traffic flow routes. These improvements will take some getting used to.

Asphalt sealing, parking lot striping, new Library fire suppression, and construction zone prep all occurred over the summer break. A construction fence marks the limit of theater work. No additional trees will be disturbed.

Nerinx Hall Students arrived back at school the week of August 14th. I'm not so sure the summer construction crew was prepared for the sheer number of students returning for the new school year. First day festivities included a construction theme, the participants confusing the Alberici staff at first with all their hard hats and caution tape. I was greatly relieved to learn the hundreds of construction workers were under the supervision of Principal Kosash and not me! Our kudos go out to the human construction warning barrel.
