Photographs of renovation progress: September 19, 2006
September 19, 2006. The north entrance. This will be the
new back entrance. A wooden platform is in place to allow
demolition materials to be dumped (into a large dumpster on
the other side of the platform). The dumpster occupies what
will be the loading dock area. The loading dock door will
be located at the window just beyond the entrance—what
was the north window of Dr. Paul Shand's office (PHY 004).
|
September 19, 2006. Old room 009 (Acoustics Lab)—the
acoustic isolation chamber was in the right corner. This will
be room 001, the research lab for Dr. Fred Behroozi.
|
September 19, 2006. Old room 101 (General Physics I lab),
new room 114, looking north. The concrete piers for the new
seminar-style tables have been poured. The top level at back
is about level with the lab tables that used to line the windows.
The blackboard was at left, now behind struts for a future
wall.
|
September 19, 2006. Ground floor (Level 1) hallway, looking
west toward the elevator tower. The Butterworth Modern Physics
Lab will be at right (room 014)—Dr. Paul Shand's former
lab. At left will be the Modern Optics Lab (room 013)—this
was the machine shop. The steps in the distance will be removed
for the new western entrance (following removal of the elevator
tower later in 2006).

|
September 19, 2006. This was the Electronics I lab on the first
floor (PHY 109). It will be part of the new Physics Majors Lounge
(rooms 101, 101A and 103). Immediately in front is the snack
and Pepsi machine area, behind this (through a future wall)
is an area for the ping pong table and a small kitchen, at left
is a corner of the undergraduate research area (six computer
work areas with storage.
|
September 19, 2006. The back of what was PHY 201 (the main
lecture theater), the window at left was one of several that
were bricked up, behind and below the wooden bleachers for desks.
This will be the Dept. Heads office, room 215A, just off the
main office (room 215)—behind the camera.
