There's a reason why a strange pyramid-shaped structure has recently appeared atop Warren's yet unfinished parking garage.

According to Don Wig, project superintendent, the structure is actually framework for the roof that will adorn the garage's main tower. The main tower will be located on the garage's south side and will house both an elevator and a set of stairs.
Wig added that a pair of shed roofs are also sitting on top of the parking garage, waiting to be placed atop the two towers located at opposite corners of the garage. These towers will both contain stairs.

Wig estimated that around the middle of August all three roofs will be attached to their respective towers.

Until then, he said, the roofs will be sheathed with plywood, structural steel landings for the main tower's elevator will be constructed, and frames will be installed to support the glass that will enclose the two stair towers.

Work on approaches, driveways, and landscaping for the garage will all begin relatively soon, added Wig.

"Right now, everything is going to happen soon," said Wig, laughing.

At present, construction workers are pouring concrete for the garage's curbs and finishing construction on the garage's three towers. Workers have already finished pouring concrete for each of the garage's five levels this summer.

Overall, Wig noted that construction on the parking garage has been going "pretty good."

"We haven't had any major setbacks. The weather's been cooperating," he said.
