Part of the work requires City workers be present to operate the mains from the street side, to turn the water off to the Tower. Apparently they identified problems on the street side requiring work before this can be done.
TENTATIVELY, they’ve told us to expect to reschedule this for the night of Wednesday April 30th, at 9pm, unti Thursday May 1st at 8am. However, we are waiting for this to be confirmed.
Once it is confirmed, a door drop will be sent out and this post will be updated.
Please read the original post below to understand more about what is expected, and contact our team any time with questions at parktowercondo-mgmt@habitat.com.
In order to accommodate the replacement of the original main valves which control the intake of water from the City Of Chicago, water serving all units – residential & commercial – as well as all amenity spaces, will be shut down overnight on Wednesday April 16th. This project is being done in coordination with the City of Chicago. The City will be shutting off the streetside mains, while our team and the contractor hired for the work, replace the building’s mains.
This work will begin on Wednesday night April 16th around 9pm, after which there will be no water service until the replacement is finished. There will be no cold or hot water to any kitchens or bathrooms. They expect to complete the replacement overnight and to have water service restored by 8am on Thursday April 17th. This is barring any unforeseen conditions or complications that may arise.
Of course no time is a good time to lose water service and we recognize this will be an inconvenience. However, the reason the work is being done is to avoid unplanned shutdowns. This work was targeted and proactive because of the condition of the valves, so we can plan for the work rather than scramble in response to possible failures in the future.
We’ve chosen to do this overnight to reduce the inconvenience this will cause, however we are also at the mercy of the City’s availability.
