Progress - Week of September 14

Delays and cranky newborns notwithstand, we are proud to show off the latest progress.  Going from bottom to top:

The kitchen floors.  As many know, we have installed reclaimed chestnut in the kitchen and the dining room.  Here are a few snapshots of the floors in unfinished condition:




Here's the kitchen all skim coated and ready for cabinetry installation...





The parlor also skim coated and ready for priming and painting.



Plaster repairs to the crown moulding.  For those loyal followers, several months ago when the plumbers were removing the old cast iron pipes, a large chunk of the crown moulding was dislodged in two locations in the parlor.



Hey look!  I almost forgot we had a fireplace in the parlor seeing as how it has always been covered up in crap.



The master bathroom and progress of the tiling.  This will probably be going on for another few weeks.



The library and the seat in the bay window.  Note the plaster repair to arch.  The detail work on this was quite extensive.






Up to the fourth floor...floors are stained albeit in a few shades darker than we really wanted.



The kids' bathroom was also painted...



Up to the attic...stained and sealed...



A few shots of the front exterior.  It kind of looks like a house.





What posting would be complete without a shot of the pile of shit in the rental?
