The Pittston Memorial Library will have a new childrens wing and community room by mid-June.

Construction on the library expansion project is on schedule, library director Anne Hogya said.

Its doing very well, she said.

Hogya said construction should wrap up by June 15. She said the additions walls have already gone up and crews have started to install windows, getting closer every day to a new space for the librarys youngest patrons.

The 5,175-square-foot expansion will include a dedicated childrens wing and a community room featuring smart boards with video-conferencing capabilities.

The librarys current design lacks sufficient space for children to use, Hogya said, with only a small section dedicated on the main floor.

The new wing will encompass 2,500 square feet of the expansion and contain space for children to play, computers, a specific room for children and teen programming and educational murals depicting Pennsylvanias wildlife.

The new childrens wing will be outfitted with all sorts of interactive play toys for the kids, Hogya said. Well be planning more childrens programs.

The rest of the expansion will house a community room that local groups can rent and use for meetings and functions, Hogya said. It will include a main room, a small kitchenette, a coat room, wireless Internet access and a smart board, Anything you would need for any type of business or community function, Hogya said.

She added that theyll be taking reservations to rent the room within a month of so.

Pittston library renovations underway

George Clooney, left, and Amal Clooney arrive at the 72nd annual Golden Globe Awards at the Beverly Hilton Hotel on Sunday, Jan. 11, 2015, in Beverly Hills, Calif.(AP)

George Clooney and his new wife Amal are putting safety first.

Us Weekly reports the new power couple are renovating their Berkshire, England, mansion to include a panic room.

"They are having a panic room installed," a source told the mag. "It'll be fireproof, bombproof, and attack-resistant."

Why do the Clooneys feel the need for the high-security addition to their home?

"Amal has high-profile clients in controversial cases," the source revealed. "She needs to be secure."

Amal and George Clooney married in Sept. 2014 and spent their honeymoon in the 17th-century manor.

Following stints living in New York and Los Angeles, Drybar co-founder Michael Landau and his wife, Sarah Hutnick, found themselves in a tiny condo in Corona del Mar.

Like so many Southern Californians, the couple craved more outdoor space for themselves and their Australian shepherd Samson and less time commuting to the Drybar offices in Irvine.

After searching for more than six months for a home with a backyard, they came across a 2,500-square-foot ranch house on nearly half an acre in Costa Mesa. The 1950 house was run-down, but it wasn't the house that made an impression. The couple fell in love with the land, which reportedly had been a working farm at one time.

Looking back, Landau described the architectural bones of the four-bedroom, two-bath house as "not that bad."

His contractor, however, refused to work on the house, saying Landau would never be happy with the results.

To update the property, the couple hired architect Josh Heitler, the designer and architect behind the Drybar chain of blow-dry bars. "It was one of those houses that had grown organically," Heitler said. "People kept adding rooms to the house without any real plan."

The architect agreed to the remodel, but when he traveled from his office in New York to Costa Mesa, he was dismayed to find disjointed ceiling heights, awkward roof lines and uneven floor levels. Even worse were the dark interiors lined with knotty pine wood paneling, ceramic tile flooring and dark tongue and groove ceiling planks.

From the beginning, the couple knew they wanted an open floor plan that extended to the backyard they cherished. And they wanted something timeless and modern as well as elegant and comfortable.

Over a two-year period, Heitler took the house down to the studs and reorganized the interiors. In an attempt to create a cohesive layout, he moved the kitchen, which now faces a new dining room and a living room that opens to the outdoors. The absence of walls gives the living space an informal feel and allows ease of movement from room to room.

In what proved to be a fairly straightforward update, Heitler painted the dark ceiling white and installed lights underneath the ceiling beams to brighten the interiors. Additionally, walls on either side of the fireplace were replaced with walls of glass that allow sun and fresh air inside as well as easy access to the exterior living areas. In lieu of conventional doors, Heitler hung barn doors on industrial sliders, which separate the master bedroom from the rest of the house. On the opposing wall, another set of sliders encases the television and windows, allowing them to appear or disappear as the mood strikes.

Above: Ed Wetzel works on Metuchen Home, a pen/ink, watercolor rendering of a house in the borough, at his studio. Right: Will, an oil study on canvas by Wetzel. As an artist whose creative roots were fostered in the borough during his youth, Ed Wetzel is now sowing seeds to cultivate the aesthetic skills of others of his ilk.

A lifelong Metuchen resident and owner of The Drawing Room, a gallery and classroom space along Main Street, Wetzels passion for art has bloomed where it was planted.

It has come full circle in a sense, he said. Im very fortunate.

Acknowledging his good fortune seems to be a mantra for Wetzel, perhaps drawing students to him as much as his finely honed art skills.

One of nine children growing up in Metuchen in the 1960s, Wetzel was able to pursue his passion through a barter deal that had him cleaning the pool of neighbor and celebrated artist Joan Arbeiter in return for lessons in portraiture. The well-known feminist artist, who became Wetzels mentor, would later get him a job teaching at duCret School of Art in Plainfield, where he still instructs.

And despite the uncertainty that comes with trying to make a livelihood in the arts, Wetzels parents stood behind him 100 percent, he said.

I think with that many kids, whatever you were interested in and whatever kept you occupied, they would foster, he said.

After high school, he attended the Newark School of Fine and Industrial Arts, also studying at duCret and the Art Students League of New York. In his travels west during his 20s, Wetzel attended the Colorado Institute of Art in Denver and the Academy of Arts in San Francisco.

The construction of a new McDonalds Restaurant at its current location of 815 N. I-27, a project projected to cost $1 million, has boosted local building activity to almost triple last years pace.

According to the February building permit report, issued this week by the City of Plainview Building and Zoning Department, local construction during the first two months of 2015 stands at $1,207,500. That compares to just $329,291 for the same period in 2014.

For the month, total permitted construction stands at $1,160,885 with 48 permits of various types issued. At 34, the bulk of those projects are for signs. The remainder includes four demolitions, three commercial accessory structures, one commercial remodel, one garage/carport, two residential accessory building, a residential addition and one small new residential structure.

Although a spokesman for the local McDonalds Restaurant franchise was not available on Tuesday, Kelly Carpenter, Plainviews new community development manager, offered a few details about that project.

They will be constructing a new structure at the existing site, she said Tuesday. And I expect it to be a quick turnaround.

She did not have a timetable for the project. According to city records, contractor for the project is Claymoore. McDonalds Restaurant also secured permits for 25 signs for the same location.

The remaining sign permits were issued to AJA Properties LLC, for two signs at 2608 Olton Rd for Jan Alford; Hazel Hestand for Honey Bee Hair Salon at 504 S. Broadway; AAA Signs of Amarillo for 1408 S. I-27; Burns Family Trust for 1001 N. I-27 #830; and four signs at 1220 S. I-27 for Reagor-Dykes.

Commercial demolition permits were issued to Methodist Hospital Plainview (Covenant Health Plainview) for 2404 Yonkers, Gary Oliver for 2408 W. Fifth and Margaret Speck Lowe for 930 Broadway. A residential demolition permit was taken out by Wells Fargo Bank for 317 Milwee.

Emilio Arzabala received a residential addition permit for 1311 Joliet; Clifton Jernigan, residential accessory building, 1612 S. Cedar; Juana A. Garcia, garage/carport, 1110 W. 29th St.; Carl Smiley, new residential building, 411 W. 17th St.;Plainview ISD, commercial portable buildings and accessory buildings, 2600 W. 20th St. and 2501 Joliet; and Apex Collision Center, commercial remodel, demolition and fence, 2601 Olton Rd.

When the Street of Dreams comes to Lake Oswego in August, the 65-year-old Shaw House will be its centerpiece

Marylou Colver of the Lake Oswego Preservation Society walked across the wood floors and past the paneled walls of the historic Shaw House back in July, examining the details of the mid-century modern home that was then up for sale.

Designed by Portland architect John Yeon and built in 1950 for Lawrence Shaw of Modoc Lumber Company, the home at 12800 Goodall Road had undergone several alterations and add-ons over the years, but the integrity of the house was still intact, Colver said.

When Brian Bohrer of Cornerstone Construction Services toured the house last fall, though, he had a different experience.

You could see ceilings leaking, said Bohrer, who co-owns the company with his brother, Jeff. You could see exterior softness and windows leaking.

The house, which is undergoing a luxury remodel as part of the 2015 Street of Dreams in Lake Oswego, lacked the flashing, ventilation and tempered windows needed to meet modern code requirements, Bohrer said. And as he and his crew began to peel back the homes outer paneling, they discovered rot throughout the house.

Going layer by layer, the crew stripped the home to its studs.

To local preservation advocates like Colver, the skeleton of the historic home which was featured in Classic Houses of Portland, Oregon, 1850-1950, by William J. Hawkins and William F. Willingham is a shocking sight. To Bohrer, the deconstruction is evidence that his team is committed to keeping the home, rather than tearing it down to rebuild even if that means investing in a $1 million remodel.

The goal was to save the house, and thats exactly what weve done, Bohrer said. You can build new houses for less than what weve spent to remodel this house.

This years 40th annual Street of Dreams at The Highlands in Lake Oswego will focus on detailed craftsmanship rather than sprawling mansions, according to Rachel Trice, vice president of marketing, membership and events for the Home Builders Association of Metropolitan Portland.
