New Neighbors

U

nder Constructions:  There has been quite a lot of construction on Ouachita's campus in the past couple of years!  We just recently opened new dorms on the North side of campus (pictured below) and now we're expanding even more by building another set of dorms and a new pedestrian bridge.

Lucky for Tyler and I, the latest construction is going on right outside our apartment.  Crews have been working hard to finish the dorms by Fall of this year.  By the looks of things, I'd say they're going to make it.  We are so excited about getting new neighbors.  It will be fun to not be the last dorm on the block, instead, we'll be living on a cul-de-sac.  Here are a couple of pictures of the construction (RIGHT OUTSIDE OUR WINDOW).

Our next door neighbors...almost

Another big project on campus is the new bridge.  The old one is AWFUL!  There are holes in the ground, it often shakes when you walk on it, and it's tiny.  The new bridge is huge and so pretty.  The bridge connects the North part of campus with the rest of campus.  The next phase in this plan is to build a road that will wrap around campus and go under the bridge.  Here are a few pictures of the new bridge (so far).



We (Tyler especially) are so excited about these new things on campus, and can't wait to see what's next!
