SCHENECTADY — Despite the endless rain, the huge Bureau of Service construction project is now slightly ahead of schedule.
Workers have erected several buildings at once — a garage, an office and a large salt shed — and are on schedule to finish the shed by winter and the other buildings by spring.
Then they will demolish the old brick BOS buildings across the street on Foster Avenue, including one that is so unsound that the upper floor had to be closed off years ago. The windows in that building were boarded over after nearly every pane was broken by passersby armed with stones and BB guns.
Employees can’t wait to move out next March.
“We’re excited to get a flat floor,” said master mechanic Michael Maynard.
Unlike the boarded-up building that Maynard works in now, the new buildings will have plenty of light and enough space that he can bring vehicles indoors to work on them in bad weather.
“We need space for truck repairs,” he said. “We’ll have room so we won’t bump into each other.”...............>>>>.......................>>>>................http://www.dailygazette.com/news/2009/sep/02/0902_bosbuilding/

I see the gazette is out doing their cheerleading again. While they have totally avoided the story...that THEY first exposed about the alleged under age drinking party hosted by a school board member and his wife, the teacher.
