Edgewater City Weekly: 9/15/2017

From the City of Edgewater:

Gold Crown

Gold Crown Foundation is progressing through the renovation project at 2501 Chase St. as scheduled. To date we have completed the replacement of the roof, leveling the interior floor, running initial plumbing lines, elevator shaft install, main entry stair case install, and framing on the 2nd level. Over the next few weeks we will be running services (utilities, water, sewer, etc.), finishing the framing, and initiating the mechanical and electrical installation. We also anticipate, in October, to be installing the elevator, finishing internal plumbing and electrical, as well as installing the west 2nd floor entry point. It is anticipated that we should be wrapping things up in late October and submitting for our final CO at that time. If everything remains on schedule, we expect to be open for students in early November, at which time we will be planning for a Grand Opening event and a public open house. We can’t thank the City and residents of Edgewater enough for their support and patience as we continue to work on this community based project!
