Basement pictures

Some of you have asked to see what's transpired in the basement since we bought the house. As many know, there was a two-bedroom rental apartment down there when we took possession almost a year ago. The apartment, built in the early 1970s, was one of the first things to go, with the help of dear friend Bill who came from Atlanta to help. Scroll down and you'll see three shots of the basement taken more-or-less from the same place of the same perspective (use the window as your reference point). The before shot is of what was the kitchen looking into what we can only imagine was described as the living room. The door to the right of the kitchen counter was for the bathroom. How 'bout that fabulous carpet?



Before



During: walls removed; ceiling mostly down; column revealed



After: carpet gone; paneling down; most of the disgusting insulation removed.
Since this picture was taken, most of the wall studs have been removed. Much more work remains.
