EAST LIVERPOOL -- A window replacement project at Kent State-East Liverpool's Purinton Hall begins today.
The project will involve the replacement of nearly 75 windows with more energy-efficient units. Work will begin with top-floor windows facing Fourth Street and move to the Broadway Street side of the building.
"Campus officials ask motorists and pedestrians to use caution when near the site," a release states.
Street parking around Purinton Hall will be limited during construction. There will be no parking in the gravel lot across from Purinton Hall on Broadway until the project is completed.
Some sidewalks around the site also will be temporarily closed, but building access will be maintained. Mechanical lifts will be located on the edge of the streets and heavy equipment will likely be crossing the street to transport windows. "Everyone is asked to use caution when in the area and adhere to all construction zone limits," the release reads.
The work is expected to continue through March 17, but that schedule could change due to inclement weather.
