Floor 2 is nearly completely cleared out. The only thing left are the studs and some plumbing.
This view is from the back of the unit towards the front. At the top of the photo, there are two small pieces of stained glass; we are keeping those where they are. We want to feature a few original accents of the building.
All the kitchen appliances, countertops and cabinets are long gone. And no, the chartreuse walls will not be staying either.
Back in the former bedroom, all the walls are exposed. My friend here is hard at work.
With only about a week left of demolition, the masonry is up next!
This is where the kitchen used to be. One of the guys bikes to our job site. I love the vintage wallpaper behind the bike and the leftover nails caring for his backpack and shirt for the day.
The stairs from floor 1 to 2 are full of rubble and dust, warning me of the upheaval. The exposed brick looks great! We are relieved as we want to incorporate that into the future space.
The dust is so great it creates bubbles in the photos. At one point, I could not even enter the unit without coughing. Thankfully, my worker friends all wear masks. Where I am standing was once a wall dividing the foyer from the first floor apartment. Now, you can see all the way through to the courtyard.
