This month, the old Fire Station No. 15 building was finally removed from the USC Village site. Several trees were removed from the perimeter of the site, and work started on utility relocation and a temporary sidewalk for Jefferson Boulevard street improvements. Precast facade panel installation was mostly completed on Building 4, while Buildings 6 & 9 completed their first sections of roof concrete.
