Whole House Restoration 2502 E Grace St.

We've recently taken on a big project in a whole house restoration at 2502 E Grace St. This attached house was built in 1879. It has been severely neglected for the better part of two decades. The group that took this project on is concerned with not only providing clean, modern living space, but preserving as much of the historical character of the building as possible. It is a historic tax credit project, which is something that we specialize in.

After a month of selective demolition, we were finally able to get to work on framing the house. We finish the family room floor and have moved to framing the ceiling of the first floor/floor the second floor.





We're using the original girders that rest in pockets in the brick wall.


The joists were not salvageable, so we have to put new ones in.
