West Wall Progress













The brick work on all four sides of the library's exterior was completed early last week and the windows along Maumee have been installed. This week work started on the West Wall of the library's exterior. Shively-Bouma, Inc. is attaching EIFS (Exterior Insulation Finishing System). This material is a lightweight synthetic material that is used to seal and finish the exterior of the building. It is similar to the material that previously resided on the library's exterior but with improved waterproofing. This material will be also be placed on the north and east walls of the library above the brick.
