The front of the apartment is looking fabulous. I keep thinking, this room is the size of plenty of whole apartments in Manhattan - why not move right in? The light and the fan went up yesterday and I love them. The floors are done, and I had three meatheads (the minimum) in to move all the appliances - fridge, toilet, microwave....- right into the middle of the living room so the rest of the house could retain some semblance of normalcy. All that's left to do in there is painting, plastering the fireplace, and fixing up the baseboard with grrrr... quarter-round. And find some kitchen cabinets. I moved my Heywood Wakefield desk up and set out a few chairs, to make it look a little like home. Tomorrow though... a demolition crew is coming to take out the remaining bathroom walls, the bathtub,the floors... and make room to fix the structural beams. We'll be able to see right through to the second floor. At least things are changing!!!

GREAT pics. Fixtures look fab. And from this angle, that cement-covered hole over the fireplace looks like an abstract painting. Def. looking up.
