Lobby Renovation Update – July

Work continues in both the 860 and 870 lobbies. Below is a summary of what’s expected to be completed within the next few weeks:

* New radiator grills have been ordered and will be installed shortly.
* New mirrors are expected to arrive in 2-3 weeks.
* A repaired stained glass window for 860 is expected to arrive any day now.
* We are getting quotes on re-painting the elevator doors and will be scheduling that work soon.

In August, we expect to move forward with installing updated signage and new framed photographs.

We are aiming to have all the above work completed by Labor Day.

The most significant work still remaining is a completed-revised, handicap-accessible vestibule entrance for 860. The Board is working with our architect and designer to choose a new front door. As there has also been some damage recently to the 870 front door, we are also now looking to replace that door as well. One challenge is that the lead time on new doors is several months. We are hoping to move forward with as many remaining “front door” punch list items as possible in the meantime. These items include installing new canopies, new inset rugs and new exterior lights.

As always, you may contact the Board at wghpresident@gmail.com with any questions.
