Library staff & supporters among those to leave their mark
The Westfield Washington Public Library (WWPL) hosted a column signing at the construction site of its new library building on Thursday. Library staff and supporters took turns signing one of the steel columns that will become a permanent part of the library’s structure.
Library Director Sheryl Sollars expressed her excitement about the event.
“This column signing marks a pivotal milestone in the progress of this landmark,” Sollars said. “This symbolic moment signifies our shared dedication to the future of this library.”
Construction on the new 43,000 square-foot state-of-the-art facility has just passed 50 percent completion. It is expected to be complete by next summer.
“The project is tracking on time and on budget,” said Marc Griffth, Vice President of Veridus Group. “The exterior of the building will continue to evolve over the coming weeks and months with the completion of masonry, metal panels, and other architectural features. Windows are scheduled to arrive toward the end of October to get the building weather tight for the winter months. The interior of the building will be finished out over the winter.”
