Project was held up after the demolition of the KYW building from permit issues resulting from procedural changes at the Water Department. In addition, it is a highly complicated site condition due to the subway entrances at 5th/Market.

Design of project is quite intricate and requires adequate time for quality construction. The expected opening of the Museum in late 2010 allows for exhibit/gallery work to proceed after construction completion. Not unusual for a museum of this caliber.

Steel work, which starts at the second level above grade, is on schedule to start in October.

Overall, project remains on schedule.
