The new Taylor Drive now has its curbs poured and awaits asphalt.
As seen from the stage and again from the top of the balcony, workers are installing the decorative ironwork that goes along the balcony railing.
Taken from the balcony of the Life and Health Sciences Building, these three photos, top to bottom, show the Science & Technology Learning Center (1) in relation to the Old Cotton Compress and the parking lot, (2) in full view with the second floor decking in place, and (3) in relation to its companion building with its partially completed foundation. The greenery beyond is along the banks of the Lozano Banco Resaca.
