The $42 million makeover of the La Crosse Center is moving along well, four months into construction, according to a contractor on the project.

In a report to the La Crosse board of public works, Peter Linsmeier with Kraus Anderson says improvements to the main arena should be finished in about a month.

The original seating from 40 years ago is being replaced, and that phase of the work may end in mid-August.

Most of the construction is scheduled to be finished by early 2021, when large meetings could return to the La Crosse Center.
