Hello neighbors! Just in case you didn't see this week's edition of 'What's UP?' I wanted to make you aware of the new and exciting changes to the Union Project building. Due to recent funding from an anonymous foundation and the PA Historic Museum Committee, Union Project is now taking the opportunity to complete the replacement of our original slate roof and to clean and re-point our exterior stone. If you have walked by our building recently, you may have noticed scaffolding is up and changes are quickly being made to one of the exterior side-walls of the building. Using a detergent solution, Preferred Contracting Services has already begun removing the 100+ years of dirt to reveal the original light colored sand stone. Our building has long been a meeting place for the neighborhood, and a gateway for neighbors to come together to help share in our mission to connect, create, and celebrate. Building renovations at union project have historically been a way for people to come together and do just that; working together to maintain the grounds as a gift to the community. Current beautification efforts are being completed with the hope that our building will stand out as a brighter beacon for community members and passers by. PLEASE SEE ATTACHED PICTURES! Thanks for your continued support and feel free to contact me with any questions or ideas! Kelly -- Kelly Tobias Volunteer and Facilities Coordinator Union Project 801 N.
