Dear Neighbors,
Thank you for your interest in the Takoma Park/Silver Spring Campus construction projects. We strive to keep our neighbors informed about significant construction events with this weekly email notification.
This notice provides information on the construction of the Catherine and Isiah Leggett Building, the campus library renovation in the Resource Center, and the East Campus Garage repair for Montgomery College.
Upcoming activities and information:
East Garage
- Work to repair areas of the East Garage located at Fenton and King Streets is progressing. This work is following all noise ordinances, and no construction vehicles are allowed to access Takoma Avenue.
- Until further notice, work will be conducted on Saturdays.
Library/Resource Center—Renovation
- New York Avenue Entrance: In the coming weeks, work will be done on the ramp at the entrance on New York Avenue. This may include demolition of the existing concrete. We will keep you updated as more information becomes available.
- Fire Alarm Testing: Interior fire alarm testing is continuing.
- Exterior Work: Landscape watering and mowing is continuing. This work may occur on the weekend.
- Deliveries: Materials for interior work activities are largely complete. Large deliveries have been completed and the majority of deliveries and haul-off of materials will be completed via vans and pick-up trucks.
Leggett Building—Construction
- Interior Work: The delivery and installation of furniture has begun.

Upon departure, the trucks will turn east on Takoma Avenue to New York Avenue and turn right on Fenton Street.
