About 25 percent complete!

Contractors have removed the lower band of limestone panels from the south, west and north elevations of the West Tower. The vertical stones from the southwest corner have also been removed. Teams are started to install new stone panels on the south elevation. By the end of the week, all the Ashlar stone on the south face will be checked, repaired if necessary, and sealed. The coping stones are also being removed and new thru the wall flashing installed before resetting the coping stones.

On the East Tower, the stone panels have been removed from the lower band of the north face and from the northwest corner.
