READY FOR DRYWALL....


MEP
Mechanical, Electrical and Plumbing rough-in work and piping is complete. We have received the city inspections and approvals.  Insulation will be completed this week and dry wall will be stocked at the building. Windows will be installed next week. The hanging and taping of drywall will begin next week.  Once complete, the interior spaces will really take shape.  Two of the second floor bedrooms have volume type ceilings with 12 foot plus heights and large double hung windows.

EXTERIOR
In addition to the interior work, we have been busy working on the exterior.  For the west side yard we have constructed a smaller version of our "signature cedar fence" to signify the main entrance and create an enclosed yard.  A portion of the fence has been continued on the east side of the house extending to the neighbors house.  A cedar swing gate will be hung in the center of the fence.  Matching cedar planter boxes will be positioned at the front of the house.

New landscaping consisting a yellow ginkgo tree along with various shrubs and grasses have been planted in the front yard.  The new concrete side walks are poured from the front yard to the alley and will be surrounded with small river rock.
