"All clear!" has been a very common phrase to hear for those living in Munson Hall and JBKO this semester.
Controlled blasting, up to three times a day, occurs at the excavation site of Square 54, across from the Foggy Bottom metro station and GW hospital. Square 54 is planned to provide various benefits for everyone in the area, bringing residential buildings, business buildings, and of course, a full service grocery store!
The new architecture has also been planned with the environment in mind, set to include over 26,000 square feet of green roof elements in hopes of helping to improve GW's green rating.
For more information, and weekly updates, the university has provided the public updates on the development through their neighborhood website: http://neighborhood.gwu.edu./campusdev/square54_updates.cfm
