Reclaimed wood floor ready for sanding

The reclaimed industrial maple tongue & groove flooring has all been laid and is ready for a light sanding and refinishing.  This is the Tourism Council of Frederick County office area of the building.

Sidewalks poured

Concrete sidewalks have been poured along East Street, Commerce Street, and the service alley to the west of the building.  A ribbon of brick pavers will separate the East Street and Commerce Street sidewalks from the curb.  The main entrance to the building is reached via a pedestrian plaza of non permeable pavers.

Theater seats installed

The fixed theater seats have been installed in the new Frederick Visitor Center.  Two rows of additional movable seats can be set up on the flat floor area in front of the theater.  The four rows of fixed seats are on a sloped floor.  The normal use of the space will be to continuously show the new 4-screen visitor orientation film, "A Turn of the Wheel," however the room was designed to accommodate occasional meetings up front.

Pavers going in

Pavers are being installed along the south side of the building, and in the pedestrian plaza outside of the front door.

Sidewalks to be poured

Forms and gravel base are in place for the Commerce Street and East Street sidewalks on the site.

Carpet in theater

Carpet has been installed in the Visitor Center's theater, and acoustical ceiling tile installation is underway.  The large opening in the front wall will have an array of four LCD monitors to show the new multi-screen visitor orientation film.

Reclaimed wood flooring

The Tourism Council of Frederick County offices will be in one wing of the Frederick Visitor Center building, and feature a reclaimed industrial maple strip floor that has just been installed.
