 I'm delighted to welcome you all to this important milestone which marks the final stretch of steelwork for our long-awaited Hope Tower expansion project. It was ten months ago when we first gathered at this very spot to break ground on the 300,000 square foot facility. The steelwork moved quickly and today we're raising to place a beam, the final one that will complete the tower's frame. The ceremony called the Topping Off Ceremony is steeped in tradition. While there are several theories as to how it began, the most commonly accepted one is that when people in Scandinavian countries built their homes, they would celebrate the setting of the last and highest wood beam. It was a customary to mark the occasion with a meal for all the workers. Today we celebrate by painting the beam white and asking all of the construction workers and people affiliated with the building to sign their names. The beam will then be adorned with an American flag, a proud tradition carried out by steelworkers throughout the United States. Before being hoisted into place, where it will remain forever. From this point, the building will really come to life. Soon the steel outline will transform into walls. The walls will receive paint. Paint will complement carefully planned design. Design will comfort patients and patients will receive hope, a healing outpatient experience.
