Demolition has pretty much stopped in the existing house and the bulk of the work being done these days is to start putting things together. Some of this work doesn't look like much of anything. For example, it takes a long time to run new electrical wires, but at the end of the day, really all there is to show for it might be some new outlets and switches. Not much to photograph. However, I've taken a few pictures of the most noticeable changes that have taken place.
A new bulkhead (the long beam-shaped structure on the ceiling) was built in the formal to conceal the fire sprinkler system lines. There are actually two in the room, which meet up with the french doors, providing symmetry while attractively concealing the lines. They will be covered in drywall and painted to match the ceiling.
The new basement bathroom walls were framed on Monday.
Here you can see the framing for the shower stalls in the new bathroom.
The two bathrooms at the base of the basement stairs are now one space. A block wall was built to fill in the second doorway and new sink, shower, and toilet units will be installed.
Drove thru campus today and was excited to see some of the work for myself (just from the car). Saw that major work is being done on the Phi Delt house, too.
