Let There be Light!

Despite gloomy skies, it was a very bright week at NCC. Electricians have been working diligently wiring and installing light fixtures. After a long week we are excited to flip the switch and reach a milestone in the large construction project…. Let there be light!

The hallways are illuminated as light fixtures are hung inside... not a bad paint job either!


Nurses Station getting closer - ready for lights!

You Can Huff and Puff, but You Can't Blow our House In

Wow! Those bricklayers are fast. They are making such amazing progress at NCC, we feel like we are in a fast-motion video. It's also putting us in nursery rhyme mode. Although we never attempted to build the NeuroCare Center out of straw or sticks, the construction does resemble the third little pig’s house--strongly constructed with good solid brick. Our masonry team has been busy laying brick around the exterior and in the three-season room, leaving a stunning and structurally impressive building. They even did an superb job matching it up to the brick on the existing NCC building, so the connection between the two is seamless.

So go ahead and try big bad wolf. You can huff and puff, but you can’t blow our house in!

This wall plus more went up in just one day! Amazing.

Spring's In the Air

Spring must be in the air, because things at the new NCC are starting to bloom.  Inside, the nurses' station is taking shape and the first coats of paint have been rolled out. Outside we're seeing shingles make their home on the rest of the roof and brick laid. Not too bad for a week's work!

Slow and Steady Wins the Race

We keep moving forward with the new NeuroCare Center. This week drywall was taped and later primed. Now, many of the interior walls are ready for paint.  So roll up those sleeves and put out some paint rags- we’re ready to roll (some paint!)

Walls are primed in preparation of paint in the new service corridor
