518 1/2 becomes 516



I couldn't believe how easy it was to change an address. The upstairs apt had a 1/2 address number and you can not buy the 1/2 numbers for buildings any more. So I went down to the planning dept and the gal punched it into the computer and the change was finished. That seemed too simple.

Bathroom pre Renovation



This is the original bathroom. We found the signature of the plumber R.E.McCarthy behind the sink that was hung from the wall. The bathroom is about 90% complete. Completion date is Thanksgiving weekend.

Dining Room Turned Into Temp Work Space

As is the case with any major construction project staging and storage space is needed. Since the kitchen and bathroom were undergoing major renovations and the back bedroom was filled with tools, the dining room became the next best space to use as a workshop. The first photo is the "before" the start of construction looking from the living room into the dining room.
Anyone in need of a claw foot tub?
