This is why I haven't blogged since February

Earlier this year, Dr. Bollenbeck and I finally found a permanent home for Towne Animal Clinic. Although our current space at 338 E Market has served us well, "this old bank" is not the ideal clinic setting. We're also outgrowing the facility and needed to make a decision before our lease came up for renewal. So we've purchased 64 Plaza Street and are about to begin demolition next week!


Getting to this point has involved many hours of study, planning, and debate, quite a few meetings with the Town of Leesburg, and making hundreds of decisions from "Do we move?" to "What style of pendant light?", but we are very excited to finally be breaking ground. It will take about 4 months to complete the project with a tentative move in date of February 1, 2011.


The new clinic is directly across from the new Town Fire and Safety Station, very close to our current location. Upgrades to our current space will include:


Indoor dog runs
Handicap Accessible Entrance
Mens and Womens Bathrooms off the lobby!
Dedicated imaging center for X-ray and Ultrasound
Two Table Surgery Suite
Four Exam Rooms
A Break Room for our Staff
Cat Condos


I'll try to post regular photos of the construction as the various stages are completed. Here are some pre-demo pictures.
