Site visit who knows what

So had a few words with the architect today during the day as while we were informed that the AC had been signed off by the mechanical engineer the slim slot diffusers that we had thought we were going to have in our master bedroom were now going to become much bigger and more hotel looking….

Anyway, headed over to Montague Street from the city to see what was what.  The contractor is trying to get us into the apartment this Friday but that would be without stairs - not too bad for us, but not such a great idea for poor wee Hippo….  So anyway the latest is that we should be able to get into the apartment next Friday at least with an air bed - left to do should be radiators, perhaps the front door for 7C, which as I am typing this has suddenly made me realize that perhaps things are not going to be ready.  They are working hard and what has been done looks great.

Not sure how well these photos will do the progress justice as was taken with phone as of course forgot my phone.  Will try and walk you through where these photos are taken from.

Not sure where we are staying next week but hopefully Monday the 10th we will be in our own flat


Purpose of this photo (if you enlarge it) is to show the silver pipes - all the steam risers and radiators are going to be painted silver - something we stole from Willow Street

Shower head - nice and large - hope it is not too low for Jon

Staircase coming together - looks a bit rough and ready in this photo, but if you have Jon's skills you can probably see through the design

Fireplace in our bedroom - the fan won't be in there of course

  1. Wow! Still a bit of a way to go. The windows look stunning. Is the architect going to have some professional photos done when it's all finished? Looks like something that he should be showing off to other people.

  2. Not sure if he is going to do so, but we are thinking of doing it ourselves for when we sell the place.
