Going Up, Part XII

504stephen_2011_06_15_0215 June 2011 – They are putting a permanent patch over the hole that was dug to connect the house to the water, sewer and natural gas lines.  The red truck in the foreground belongs to the tile setters.  With 4.5 baths, the kitchen and a wet bar in the basement, guess there is a lot of tile setting to be done.

Going Up, Part XI

504stephen_2011_06_01_01This picture was taken 01 June 2011.  The house is now up for sale at a bargain price of $1,285,000.
