2008 Conkling Street Construction Schedule Updates

As reported previously on the Canton Connection Online, the Hanover Company is currently working on a two-year construction project to build an apartment complex on the site of the old Tulkoff Food Products/Gunther Brewery buildings on S. Conkling between Toone and Elliot Streets.

Each month, the Hanover Company's project manager, Robert Hooten, issues a progress report to the Canton Community Association and neighborhood residents. As a community service, the Canton Connection Online will provide a summary of each report when it is issued.

UPDATE (Friday, March 21): The project is enforcing a policy of no parking along Elliott Street for contractors, out of consideration for the reduced number of parking spaces around the construction site.

Construction of the exterior stoops (minus brick facades) is complete. The crane has been erected and will remain in place through May, when the wood framing has been completed. Deliveries of the wood for the framing is currently ongoing. Interior and exterior masonry work, window installation, and mechanical, electrical, plumbing, and fire sprinkler system installation is all currently underway.

Underground utility work involving two crossings under Conkling Street will begin this coming week. The site is patrolled by a security guard during non-working hours and on weekends, and the construction parking lot is also patrolled during business hours.

UPDATE (Friday, January 11): The foundation excavation is complete, and the first of four concrete pourings is scheduled to begin tomorrow beginning around 7:15 a.m. The concrete work is on schedule to be completed next month (weather permitting), which is ahead of schedule. The crane has been erected and will remain in place through late spring. Wood framing is on schedule to start in early February at the north end of Elliott Street, and will proceed south towards Toone Street.

The City fixed an underground water leak under the north side of Elliott Street, approximately halfway up the block.
