It's getting closer...

...to being completed. Below are some more pictures of the basement, some of the windows trimmed out and one of the addition taken from the bike path around the lake.

More pics...

...one of which shows the north wall on the main level, with the two small windows. One shows the east wall on the main level, with the two big windows and the boxes between them for the flat screen TV in the wall, just above the board leaning against it. Another picture shows the entrance area. The door on the left is the door from the outside, on the south wall, where the deck is on the south east side of the house. The door on the right is the door into the old house. Then, directly across from the outside entry door on the left is the where the stairway to the basement is located. The final picture is the only picture of the new basement I have, which was taken two days after they poured the slab. As can be seen, they still have to properly install the sump ejector outlet and the windows. They also have to install the basement door as well. They're trying to get most of it completed this week, but they'll have to wait until I paint to lay the flooring.

Various pics...

...one taken at the top of the stairs in the bedroom looking down to the main level. Another is taken from where one would stand after entering from the back porch and looking down where the stairs will lead to the basement. The rebar for the basement floor can be seen. The basement the steps into the basement from the outside are to be poured tomorrow, since it is going to be approximately 55 degrees. The pic of the entire outside of the addition shows the basement entrance covered under plywood to protect it from the elements when it cures. There is also a picture showing that the ground around the basement has been backfilled. Pics are in various order...

Pics of the first floor...

...with most of the drywall up. The two small windows are on the north wall facing the alley. to the left of that image, you make a 180 there to go up the stairs to the second level. To the right in the south wall with the three windows, you can see the edge of the entry door off of the deck at the back of the house.

Pics from the second floor...

...with most of the dry wall up. The doorway showing the window is the bathroom and the other doorway is into the closet.
