Big Demo

Rob arrived today and we got down to serious demolition.  Don't have time to post it all, but big progress with the bulk of the Library "builtin" shelves gone, as well as probably 1/2 of the library ceiling, exposing much more detail about the framing and how it changes through the spaces.  Found some scary knob-and-tube wiring but it turned out to be cut and disconnected a couple feet further on (phew).  Failed to find any clear reason for the water stains on the plaster ceiling, though.  We did expose the whole bottom of the tub area, so we can check that out easily.  Also found where there used to be a vertical post that's not there anymore . . . hmm.

Demolished builtins and ceiling . . . the room now ~2 feet wider (and the leftmost part of that wall will go away soon)...


Scrap/leftovers from the builtins...

Trash pile... dumpster comes tomorrow...

Are you guys doing the finish work too, or just the demo? Very impressive so far. Please continue to impress me.
