There is a fairly substantial steel structure going up on this site. It takes up the whole block. I just haven't seen this much steel on a project in a while.

It's being built by Paradigm builders. It might be related to the church on the block just north of it.

"The $36.1 million improvements include a new adult education facility, a new middle school and interior renovations to the department's existing Ronald W. Reagan Administration Building, according to the April 27 news release from Lockwood, Andrews & Newnam, Inc., the program manager for the projects."
