芝加哥OPHA大厦正在进行电梯更新改造
Oak Park Housing Authority（OPHA）执行董事大卫-波普（David Pope）在给《Oak Park and River Forest 周三日报》编辑的一封信中说，OPHA 目前正在米尔斯公园大厦（Mills Park Tower）进行一项耗资 68 万美元的电梯更新改造工程，该大厦建于 50 多年前，共有 198 个单元，楼高 19 层。波普说，两部电梯都将停运长达 16 周，以适应这项 “符合所有国家和地方法规要求 ”的工程。他指出，MPT 不断获得资本再投资，其中还包括新屋顶和外墙翻新。MPT 位于距离芝加哥市中心约 10 英里的橡树园，有近 200 名居民。
Elevator Modernization Underway at Chicagoland OPHA Tower
In a letter to the editor of the Wednesday Journal of Oak Park and River Forest, Oak Park Housing Authority (OPHA) Executive Director David Pope said OPHA is currently undertaking a US$680,000 elevator modernization at Mills Park Tower (MPT), a 19-story, 198-unit public housing structure built more than 50 years ago. Pope said each of the two elevators will be taken out of service for up to 16 weeks to accommodate the work, which is “being conducted in compliance with all state and local code requirements.” He observed that MPT continuously receives capital reinvestments that have also included a new roof and façade renovation. Home to nearly 200 residents, MPT is in Oak Park, a village approximately 10 mi. from downtown Chicago.
