IN THE WORKS
HALIFAX HARBOR PLAZA BUILDING: The fresh new look of the Halifax Harbor Plaza Building, 125 Basin Street, is nearing completion! Located near the Halifax Harbor Marina, this city-owned, two-story stucco structure is undergoing a stunning repainting makeover, and it’s about 90% complete. The transformation brings an updated energy and curb appeal to the scenic waterfront area. A final walkthrough is set for early May. SUNNYLAND PRESS BOX TOWER: Construction is moving along on the Sunnyland Press Box. Crews have made progress, with concrete- block walls now reaching the second floor. A major milestone was hit this week with the successful installation of the staircase — a crucial step in bringing the project together. Next on deck: wrapping up the blockwork and beginning the installation of floor and roof framing. There’s still plenty of work to go including roofing, doors and windows, interior finishes and painting. The new press box is on track for a July completion. DAYTONA STADIUM CAMERA ROOF DECK: Work is nearly complete on the new camera roof deck on the fourth floor at Daytona Stadium. Crews are installing an epoxy roof coating system on the 2,350 square foot deck. The system, designed for high-traffic concrete surfaces, includes multiple layers to ensure a waterproof and slip resistant surface. A net extending three feet from three sides of the deck is being added to catch small objects and protect spectators below. Net installation is expected to begin by the end of May, with full completion of the roof deck to follow shortly after. BOARDWALK STAIRS: With all necessary permits secured from the Florida Department of Environmental Protection and Volusia County, reconstruction of the staircases in the boardwalk area is set to begin next month. Originally damaged during Hurricane Nicole, the $902,202 project will build 14 nine-foot-wide staircases and four ramps. Each staircase will be constructed using timber piles, aluminum cap boards and stringers with fiberglass-reinforced plastic (FRP) decking. The project is expected to take one year to complete. MAIN STREET ARCH: We’re approaching the finish line on Main Street Arch repairs! Crews are now installing native coquina stone on the historic structure’s east side, and about 80% of the walkway’s walls are done. A major milestone was recently hit with all concrete work completed and formwork removed. Next up is reinstalling the iconic sign, fresh paint, new lights and cameras and railing and interior repairs.
