🚧 Progress rolling forward on Route 3. 🚧

Great to see Fetcho crews out moving earth, laying the groundwork, and keeping another project advancing in our community. The heavy equipment may steal the spotlight, but it’s the skilled operators and laborers behind the controls making it all happen. 👷‍♂️🚜🦺

Roads, utilities, drainage, development… it all starts with hardworking men and women on the ground turning dirt into progress.

Please use caution when traveling through work zones and give crews the room they need to work safely.

🏗️ Another beautiful transformation taking shape at The Legacy Hotel on Medina Square.

Proud to see Valentine Mason and skilled tradesmen bringing craftsmanship, precision, and hard work to every level of this project. From scaffold to skyline, this is the kind of work that leaves a lasting mark on the community. 🧱👷‍♂️🦺

Historic charm below. Modern progress above. Medina Square continues to grow while preserving the character that makes it special.
