Rough carpentry


Four weeks into the project and it's starting to show signs of what the finished kitchen will look like. They've installed the plywood where the back wall will be, with holes cutout for outlets, water hookups, power, lights, etc.




Here's a view from the front door. In the distance is 'The Zipper' - a plastic portal allowing access to the living room provided you can dive or crawl through the opening. The light switches on the new wall in the foreground turn the various new lights on/off now.



This shot of the ceiling shows how electric wiring has been embedded in a channel carved into the beam. The pink wallpaper on the beam has probably been around since the building was a hotel in the early 1900's. It's been hidden behind a dropped ceiling since then.
