1133 6th st- End is closer

Lots of great things going on at this project. Working basically round-the-clock to get it on the market in the end of June. It's looking really amazing and I'm so pleased with how it's progressing. We're also going to be featured in an upcoming episode of "My First Place" on HGTV. They're filming in the top unit this weekend with a prospective buyer.

Here's the loft on the top unit. Looks awesome, especially with the custom railing in place ( we took it off to install the flooring). The kitchen cabinets are going in tomorrow morning.



Here is the living room on the second floor. You can't really see any of the crown molding but it will really show when the finish paint is applied.



This is the tile in the master bathrooms. You can't really get a gauge of how it will look done but it will be pretty spectacular.




This is the first floor unit.



Here is the tile combo in the stand-up showers. The pebble floor is really interesting.



This is the back wall after it was painted. You can see we were testing different trim colors. I think we decided on the more grey color, because the blue will fade faster over time.



The balconies are slowly taking shape. The spiral steps are being built off-site and should go in next week.



Here is the front window. We originally painted it one shade of green, but it was too light. I searched around and found the color I wanted- you can see the darker part on the center. We're going to repaint them all with this darker color.



The steps down to the basement now exist. Lots of digging finally paid off.

1133 6th St- Almost Ready For Sheetrock

Our condo project is moving along at a great rate. I was shooting to have the drywall up this week, but we still had a million little things to do, so it got pushed back until later this week, if not the beginning of next week. Things look really good and I can't wait to get the sheetrock up so we really start forging ahead.

The sign went in last week in the front yard. The rendering looks awesome.



The front windows all arrived and the trim is finished. It just needs to be painted. It is an exact match of the historic trim that was on the building when it was originally built, including the transoms above the front glass.



This is from several weeks ago, but I realized I never posted pictures of the radiant floor before we poured the slab. We attached the pex tubing to wire mesh, which worked well. The radiant floor will be enough heat to use as the primary source of heating, but this unit will also have central heat and air.




Here's the basement a few days ago. It was a madhouse trying to get everything done before the sheetrock.



Also finished is the spray foam insulation. This stuff is so much more effective than really any other method for insulating exterior walls. We did all the front and back walls, including the ceiling of the building.



This is a typical wall after the installation:



And here is the roof:




This is what the front pitched roof looks like from the outside. The shingles look awesome and are the same color as the new slate roof in the front of the building, which will be finished this week.



Today we finished framing and pouring the front steps to access the basement unit. They are nice and wide.
