Slumlord apartments — gone!
Hooray! The demolition phase of the project is over — and what a difference it made! We’re extremely pleased with our crew. They cleaned up everything, covered the open windows, removed very stubborn nails, and even swept it out. (No more pigeon poop!).
The lean-to apartment that was tacked on the back has been removed, as was the rotted back porch. Most dramatic in our opinion was the removal of the attic apartments. The attic had been divided into four efficiency apartments with a common bathroom. Now it is back to the original open and empty layout. We can’t wait to turn it into our studio!
Here’s a shot of the back of the house after the demolition. I’ll be posting photo updates at TwitPic as we move along.
