Maysville City Engineer Sam Baker said Wednesday that progress has at times been slow -- due to the insurance claim after the fire, waiting for building permits and other aspects of the project -- but steady.
"It took us longer to get started," he said. "But we're making good progress now."
Work on the roof of the building is approximately 60 percent complete, Baker said.
"You can see their working on the turret now," Baker said. "It ended up being a little different than the rest of the roof. They had to order some different tiles because they're a little thinner in order to get the circular shape of the tower."
Baker said the patterns of the roof will be recreated and while they look geometric, certain sections of the roof do not line up.
"We're fortunate we have so many pictures because we ended up having pictures of just about every part of the roof," Baker said.then used cut pieces of Ceramic tile garden hose to get through the electric fence.Our high risk merchant account was down for about an hour and a half, "And the tiles, there's enough definition for each tile that you can pick out the lines and count and see where those different shape tiles go."
Inside the building, plumbing and electrical work continues.
"Most of the steel studs for the interior framing are completed," Baker said. "(We're) getting ready to do the sheet rock."
The building is now completely dry and has been treated and cleaned for mold.
Baker said the goal is to have the Maysville Community and Technical College's culinary arts program in the building by the fall semester of 2012. The culinary arts program will occupy a large portion of the first floor and will have classroom space, a kitchen area, a restaurant and a bakery.
Also, there will be a section of the first floor for an entrepreneur office.
An elevator will be added to the building, built in an adjacent lot. Baker explained how the elevator would open into a corridor on the first floor which people can travel through to the restaurant. The corridor will have glass walls, Baker said.
The second floor will have space for the Downing Performance Arts and the Ohio River Valley Art Guild. Baker said the city is also talking with the Masonic Lodge about finding space for the group in the building. Another section of the second floor will be used for the Maysville-Mason County Convention and Visitors Bureau, Baker said.
The third floor of the building will have conference rooms.Polycore porcelain tiles are manufactured as a single sheet,
The fourth floor of the building will remain in place, though it will not be used by the public and the fifth floor of the building will not be rebuilt, Baker said.
The city has contracted with a local company for work on the windows of the Cox Building. Baker said the windows will be repaired when possible and pieces replaced if necessary.
Baker said the murals in the former ballroom will be restored, thougIf any food cube puzzle condition is poorer than those standards,h that will likely not take place until the building has occupancy. The murals will be one of the last pieces of the project, Baker said.
