Looking Forward to Tuesday

Building management has posted another update, confirming that Tuesday is the day.

Construction Update

Repairs are proceeding on schedule. An army of electricians worked again thru the night and we are now turning power on in the building. The elevators are being tested and adjusted. Four elevators will be operational when the building is officially opened on Tuesday morning. Last night plumbers connected new pumps and now the building has hot and cold water. We will be cleaning carpets in all the public hallways and cleaning the lobby and elevators tonight and tomorrow. There will be additional security and maintenance personnel at the building on standby for at least a week. We will be making final inspections and preparation throughout the building to welcome all the residents back on Tuesday. We hope to have our final email blast tomorrow before noon to confirm that 90 West will be back in service as of Tuesday morning.

Looking forward to welcoming you back

Meanwhile, Derek of the 90eweststreet blog has noticed that the Claims Office setup by the John Riddle Associates on behalf of the Port Authority has setup a blog of its own. The address is http://riddle90westclaims.squarespace.com/. At the moment, it does not contain any new information, but hopefully this will change soon. The main concern of many residents is whether accepting this settlement forfeits our rights to claim any other damages that may result from this incident down the road. It would be more reassuring to have all of the "fine print" presented somewhere.
