Electrifying progress


This photo shows the electrical feeder conduits that will bring power into the Cancer Center from a large step-down transformer to be located along the South Claiborne side of the site. The 24 conduits, installed by Frischhertz Electric of New Orleans, total about 1.4 miles (7,200 feet) just to bring the power from the street to the building. Concrete will soon be poured into the wooden forms to encase the conduit and protect it from damage.

Meanwhile, concrete wall, column, and grade beam installations continue along with storm water and sanitary piping. Fire pump infrastructure is being placed, and the elevator pits have been completed.
