Pieces of the "puzzle" fit together in Thompson/Lane!

One of the projects this past summer was to replace the 10+ years old public area furniture in the first floor main lounges of Thompson and Lane.  The "old" furniture was then moved to the basement for use down there in the TV rooms and the furniture previously in the TV rooms was recently moved to the Harrington Commons to be used again in the area that was previously the Harrington Computing Site.  In that way everything was recycled and nothing was disposed of in any way.  The new furniture is referred to as "puzzle" pieces as each section can be moved around in different ways to create a loveseat, sofa, or just a stand-alone chair to allow for maximum personal choice when residents are using it. Additional plans for these lounge areas include replacing the carpeting next summer and re-painting the walls.
