So I wanna answer your question also in a more direct way and I got the information.
1:20:14
For this calendar year, we will be finishing our Flushing Elevator Project, which is a major project.
1:20:22
We'll be finishing also our seaside HVAC project.
1:20:28
And we'll be finishing our upgrading of Hunter's Point Library, which is a library we had to upgrade.
1:20:37
And that will be complete by the end of the calendar year.
1:20:40
And that I must say, I want to accentuate that, has been a very dynamic project with DDC.
1:20:47
And that DDC, the city and the Queens Public Library have been working very close together on this particular project.
1:20:54
And, the Hunter's Point that opened a number of years ago will not be the Hunter's Point that people will see.
1:21:00
And, we've been able to maintain Hunter's Point staying open while all this work is taking place and the work taking place at night, and then cleaning up for the customers during the day.
1:21:11
So again, similar to Flushing, Flushing we've kept open as well and having work done at night and keeping it open during the day and the evening.
