Construction Milestone Event at Rock Creek on March 15
Photos and story by Gina Whitehill-Baziuk
Construction continues beam by beam at Building 7. There will be plenty to look at when students, faculty, staff and invited guests gather on campus for the “steel column signing” celebration.
On Friday, March 15, the Rock Creek Campus will celebrate an important moment in our history. Beginning at 10 a.m., event guests will gather under a tent in front of what will eventually be the main entrance to an expanded and significantly enhanced Building 7. All are invited to celebrate, share refreshments, and sign a steel column that will be part of the structural bones of the new building.
This event is an opportunity to acknowledge the important milestone of the steel structure going up. It is also a time to thank and acknowledge the many PCC students, faculty and staff who have given their time and energy throughout the vision and design phases of the project; the dozens of people who are responsible for the actual construction of Building 7; and finally to our colleagues who call Building 7 home—thanking them for their enthusiasm and patience.
Look for the tent and join us for hot beverages and pastries. Please email Jennifer Hamlin to RSVP.
