Greetings and welcome to your project blog for the upcoming painting project at MacClaren Hill in St. Paul. We are excited to be back and painting for your this summer!

The crew put the last piece of the puzzle together and tied a bow on your interior painting project with installing the mural and track in all of the buildings. Here are a few after photos:

Lots happening around the Twin Cities this weekend to check out — looks like a beautiful weather weekend as well! The Stone Arch Festival is this weekend, Fri-Sun in Minneapolis along Main St. in Minneapolis and not far from there, Boom Island Festival is Sat-Sun. If you’re looking to cheer on the Twinkies, they’ve got a home- game stretch through next Wednesday and they are crushing it!

The crew is wrapping on the 1370 Building and will begin the 1410 Building on Monday — starting with ceilings. They’ll prep and paint the ceilings only in the 1410 and then in the 1412 Building. We’re utilizing a lift to reach the upper areas and want to maximize the efficiency of the lift. Thanks and have a great weekend!

Monday, June 3rd: Good morning residents of MacLaren! 

We are thrilled to be back onsite with you this year! For your 2019 project, we’ll be prepping and painting the interior of your 3 buildings, including the entry, hallway, and stairwell ceilings, walls, millwork- doors/frames, and service doors/frames. 

We are starting in the 1370 Building on the 1st floor and we will complete a floor at a time and then we’ll move up to the 2nd and then continue to make our way up. 

We are starting with the prep and painting of the ceilings, followed by the millwork and walls. The 1410 Building will be 2nd and then the 1412 Building will be 3rd. 

Continue to follow the project progress here on the blog as we’ll project status updates, project photos, and any other pertinent information regarding your project. 

Thanks so much for having us back and we’ll looking forward to sprucing up your buildings.
