There will be a water outage tomorrow morning, Thursday, June 27, in all of the core restrooms, floors 2-5. The outage will begin at 7:00 a.m. and is expected to last about 2 hours. The restroom trailer on Capstone Drive will be open during this time. The water outage is necessary so that temporary plumbing pipes that have been installed can be connected. This will allow the project to move forward and demolition of the restrooms on second floor will proceed on Monday, July 1.
Wednesday, June 26- Join us on the second floor of Gorgas, beginning at 9:00 a.m.
Gorgas 102 and 104 have been reopened and are available for use. Everything is back in place and working fine. Thanks to Custodial Services, OIT, OLT, and the Electrical Shop for getting everything back in good shape.
The nursing mothers room in 208A has been permanently closed because it is located within the construction zone for the Gorgas 205 project on second floor. The nursing mothers room is being temporarily relocated to M416 on floor 4M. When the restroom renovation project is complete, there will be a new nursing mothers room located on the first floor next to the rest room.
The first phase of the restroom renovation project is complete. The sanitary drain line has been installed in the tunnel underneath rooms 104 and 102, and the access hatches have been installed. The rooms will be thoroughly cleaned and then turned back over to us for use early next week. The furniture vendor will come next week to move the furniture back into place, and technicians will reconnect electrical and data supply. If everything goes as planned, we will reopen 102 and 104 late next week. There will be a small amount of work that will be done in the south hallway of 102 later in the project, but that will not disrupt use of the rest of the space in 102 or 104.

The restroom trailer that is located on Capstone Drive will be open while the restrooms inside the building are unavailable.
