At the Peoples Bank building, crews are completing ductwork installation across the second floor. Each section is carefully measured and fitted, with all joints sealed using specialized tape to ensure a tight, efficient system. Crews are working systematically from one end of the floor to the other, connecting each piece to form a continuous network that will deliver balanced airflow throughout every room. Once complete, the system will provide reliable, energy-efficient ventilation to support the restored interior spaces.
