Well, the crew has pulled off the stucco and revealed the brick front and windows. Although it is not very nice at the moment, we are beginning to see it’s potential. As my architect says, “It’s handsome!”. The best part is it will look like two different buildings but with a consistent feel. The arched windows and archways of the East building are beautiful. One archway will have to be reconstructed and we discovered a huge crack in the corner, but all can be fixed.
They are currently painting the window frames and will replace the broken ones windows. Now that the natural light is coming in on the second floor, it is amazing! It makes a huge difference. After this, we wait and hope that we get approval to move forward. Keep your fingers crossed!
