Exterior progress is visible as the glass installation continues to proceed forward, with the podium now fully sealed. Currently, the focus is on completing glass installation on the 17th floor of the tower. With the podium glass installation complete, attention will shift to completion of framing the podium units, while framing work within the tower progresses up to the 23rd floor.
The cooling tower has been successfully positioned atop the building and efforts are now underway to waterproof the 7th floor amenity deck. Concurrently, the construction team is actively engaged in the build-out of the elevators.

Concrete pouring has successfully reached the 28th floor, and work is now focused on the final section of concrete, which includes the roof above the 28th floor. This area, designated for the cooling tower, is anticipated to be completed by the end of the week. Simultaneously, there's active progress in the framing of The Novus condo units inside the building, with installation completed up through the 20th floor. In addition, glass installation is underway, with installers currently working on both the podium and the tower sections. The glass installation on the 10th floor is in progress, and the commencement of work on the 11th floor is scheduled for later this week. Things in downtown Durham are looking up!

Concrete is being poured for The Novus’ 19th floor - the first of the condominium levels! The concrete and sleeving installation is taking place through the 19th floor. The face of the building is taking shape as the precast brick is being installed along the facade. Ductwork installation is underway on the first 14 floors as well. The next major step is the commencement of the glass installation in the building. We can't wait to see the beautiful sunsets reflecting in the windows in downtown Durham!
