The streeside caulk replacement on unit HJK is almost done and crews are scheduled to start caulk removal on the courtyard side of units J and K on Wednesday the 20th. A fence will be installed for safety and access to units through the courtyard will be resticted during the work week, though we will try to make sure access is available on weekends as we have on the streetside.
We expect to continue in the courtyard and will probably be fencing units J and FG shortly after - probably some time next week.
Housing will be moving bike racks and you should have been contacted about removing your window AC units by now. If you have any materials that will be left in the fenced 'cages' beneath the balconies on the ground floor please note - these will be inaccessible while the work is ongoing. We will cover these fenced areas with poly sheeting so they will remain clean and free of materials.
If you have any questions or concerns email or call.

I apologize for not being able to come to the meeting last night. I have some comments and some questions:
I wanted to comment that it's very hot in our living rooms/kitchens as a result of how difficult it is to move cool air in from the bedroom. We'd prefer not have to by more fans to try to circulate the air - for the expense and the noise. Really those portable units only effectively cool the room that they're placed in.
Here are my questions:
1. Will this side of the project be able to progress faster that the street side? Or at least have the plastic on for fewer weeks?
2. Would it be possible to not plastic over the playground side windows until you start work on that section of the building? There's been no work done on our section of the bldg this week, but we've been closed in - J-entry.
3.And finally, we have an ac unit from the living room that we'd like to be able to use in the other bedroom. Will MIT cover the cost of having that installed for us, since we're only wanting to use it on the street side because of this project?
Thanks for keeping us updated on the blog, addressing problems quickly, and for doing your best to accommodate us during the project.
