Ramon Perez, a steelworker with Joe Gen LLC, tightens one of the bolts securing the fourth support tower as they begin to assemble the canopy structure for the new Frank Loomis Palmer Amphitheater at the Hygienic Art Park in New London Tuesday, November 14, 2017. The new 60-foot by 60-foot steel and glass canopy will provide shade and cover from sun and weather allowing performances in the art park when weather might otherwise force a cancelation. The steelwork is expected to take most of the week and the installation of the glass panels will follow. (Sean D. Elliot/The Day) Buy Photo Reprints
