The End Is In Sight

August 20, 2006

So much has been completed in the past 28 days. The new staircase is complete, new windows are in, HVAC ductwork is all but complete, bathroom plumbing is roughed in, telecommunications wiring is going in, and insulation is being laid. I could go on, but I will let the pictures speak for themselves (taken August 13, 2006):

Stairs

A week and a half has gone by since the last post and in that time framing on the 4th/3rd/2nd floors and the stairs to the 4th floor (Heavens) have been completed. Also, we see the first rise of stairs for the new staircase in the center of the house. These pictures were taken on July 18, 2006:

We were able to document more progress on July 6, 2006. Four more workers have been added to the efforts to ensure we are on track for September 1st completion. Framing is complete on the 3rd floor and commencing nicely in all other areas. The 2nd/3rd floor electrical rough-in has started and new treads/landings have been added to the rear stairtower.
