Born To Build

My Great Grandfather was in partnership with two of his brothers building huge homes in Richmond's Fan District before and at the turn of the 20th century. I've renovated one of their houses for a family in the 90's and the home I've been working on the past few years is across the street from this one. 

This was two homes plus an apartment built by two families in 1906. It still has multiple units in it with the new owners living there also.

 I think this is the owner's mom. They were excited to find out why I was taking pictures of their home.

 My hands on part of this bathroom renovation is finished other than changing out some fixtures and hooking them to the water/drain.

 I've draped plastic to keep my plaster buddy from having to worry about slinging finish coat all over my work. I'll make sure he has everything he needs while building an HVAC return cover then next week hang another exterior door on this house.
