The 1924 Grand Central Arts Center building, home of California State University, Fullerton Graduate Arts Program, was completely remodeled and opened in 1999. There are 27 studio apartments, three art galleries, a live performance theater, classroom space and the Gypsy Den Restaurant. The building, which is located on the southeast corner of Broadway and Second Street, required an emergency building repair (completed in January 2008) and is in need of termite treatment to preserve the integrity of this historic building. In January of this year, for safety reasons, an emergency repair had to be done to one of the parapet walls of the building to prevent water intrusion and a new sheet metal cap matching the other parapet caps was installed. The termite treatment required will consist of complete subterranean treatment of basement foundations, bora -care treatment of basement ceiling floorboards, bora -care treatment of all 27 studio apartment attics, local treatment of drywood termites on the exterior and additional services as needed. This specific termite treatment will provide the least impact for the occupants of the building. 4 -21
