WAL progress

Wood elements on the main courtyard of the WAL project on R Street are looking good as the stucco work proceeds. Moving quickly into finishes on the interior of the units as well; and the brick is being installed on the exterior as well. The CLT used for the mezzanine’s is looking great – the beauty of exposed wood without spending extra since it’s part of the basic structure.
