Dear Friends,<\/span><\/p>\n

Great news!  ISHA\u2019s architects have delivered the nearly final design drawings for the ISHA Meeting Hall dome!<\/span><\/div>\n
 <\/span><\/div>\n
During the last year, the design has undergone some major modifications. The biggest of which is the addition of a full basement to the building.  This will allow us to install a large commercial kitchen that can be used to feed hungry satsangis in a large, circular dining hall that seats 200.  Because the Meeting Hall is to be built on a hill, the basement can have a walkout on the east side, and natural light can be windowed into the dining hall.<\/span><\/div>\n
 <\/span><\/div>\n
With the addition of a basement, we must now fit a large set of stairs and two elevators into the building.  In addition, we now have space for a meeting room, a family room, and ISHA offices.<\/span><\/div>\n
 <\/span><\/div>\n
If all goes well, we still hope to begin work in June or July.  Stay tuned for a call for construction-site volunteers soon!  To receive announcements for seva opportunities, make sure that you are on the ISHA email list (click on http:\/\/ishanews.org<\/a>), and subscribe to the ISHA Construction Chronicles blog (click on http:\/\/ishanews.org\/ishwarsprojects2\/the-construction-chronicles\/<\/a>).<\/span><\/div>\n
 <\/span><\/div>\n
Below are 3D architectural images of the building viewed from three different directions.  Note that the colors and textures shown on the building are not the final choices.<\/span><\/div>\n
