Members of JCHE's Real Estate Development Committee gathered on May 14 with our Site Super to check on the progress of Shillman House. The supporting walls of the 2nd floor in the northeast wing are nearly completed and the drilling of the ninth geothermal well is in progress. Just one more well to go!
Can you believe it? A first floor corner apartment is taking shape, and our Committee members are checking it out! After all the hard work to make Shillman House a reality, it's wonderful to find ourselves surrounded by walls and a ceiling!
