With all of the steel framework in place, the building begins to resemble the pre-construction drawings. The teen area is seen as a hexagonal frame. From the cafe we can look directly towards the children’s area with the trees beyond with the young adult area and meeting room to either side. Beyond the children’s area will be an open area and steps leading down to a wetland-like garden. Watch in the coming weeks as the walls go up.
