OHS Construction Update #3

This past week we got a newsletter from the Alpine School District that included an update on bonding projects. Here's what it said about Orem High:
The construction on the rebuild of Orem High School on the existing property began in April. Partial demolition and the construction of parking lots and tennis courts started in June. The entire project is scheduled to be completed by July 2010.
I went by the other day to check it out and took a few pictures. I'll post a few below, but you'll find more here.

Here's a new parking lot they've added north of the school.


The hole that was the C-gym.


A shot from the north-west corner of the school lot showing the new parking lot they've added in front of the building.


Looking across the new parking lot at the welcoming main entrance.


Some people might be confused by this.


Looks like they are almost ready to pour the new tennis courts.


The remaining 3 tennis courts are getting new net posts and new fencing.


A little more parking behind the east bleachers.

Orem High Contruction Update #2

Here are some more photos of what's going on at the high school. It's not as dramatic as the piles of rubble, but it's progress.

Looking south along the front of the school.


Would the person who stole the D from "Golden Tigers" please come to Mr Delaney's office?


Looking north from what used to be the parking lot.


What's left of the shops from the south-west corner of the lot.


What's left of the shops from what used to be the driving range.


The 3 remaining tennis courts and the football field from across a newly leveled portion of the former driving range.
