Major work happening here:
The goal of the seismic improvements program is to improve seismic preparedness by addressing unreinforced masonry (URM) building elements including bearing walls, non-bearing walls, parapets, façade features and similar architectural elements. Seismic work at Suzzallo Library will include URM bearing wall strengthening, parapet bracing, finial bracing and facade pinning. Work will also include improvements and restoration of the building façade including masonry repair, replacement, repointing, resealing etc.
