Ch-Ch-Ch-Ch-Changes (Part Three)

Here we are, three weeks in and almost all caught up. Mr. Contractor sent me a few updated photos a couple of days ago. These are from the "inside" of the "shell" facing the front wall and street.


South wall.  (Can you spot the "ghetto bird"?)
North wall.
Facing East.

Over the weekend, our realtor-turned friend (my favorite person in Baltimore -seriously), was in the neighborhood and took a few more pictures for us.  

From the front.

Street view.


(Mind you this was on a Saturday morning). I am sure our neighbors LOVE us right about now!

Demolition phase: completed.  This week the groundwork and grading will be done for the site.

Ch-Ch-Ch-Ch-Changes (Part Two)

By week two, the roof, the second floor, and the rear wall had been completely demolished. 

This is what things were looking like at that point.

Inside view.

Still trying to figure out what that sign on the garage door says (Matty)?  Well, one small detail about this lil project of ours that I have not mentioned is that we actually purchased TWO "shells" which, we are converting into one (awesome) house.  The sign is a notice offering up the opportunity to protest the consolidation of said property.  


Here it is up close. 


I presume no one showed up to object.  But, in case they did (and we just don't know about it yet) that may mean H and I will each have our own house side-by-side. 


Hmmm maybe I should've called out sick last December 6th...
