A Change of Face

In one evening, the whole building looks incredibly different. People on the street will definitely notice the change tomorrow morning. 

Thanks to a ton of help from friends and family, we were able to disassemble and remove the overhang tonight with no injuries or broken windows (except for the one window that was already broken). 

Now, the second row of windows are open for the first time in more than half a century. We have removed the false ceiling on the inside and now the boards/overhang on the outside, allowing tons of light in and revealing the original front of the building. 

Just wanted to send a big shout out and thank you to everyone who helped tonight and throughout this first phase of this project! That includes (but not limited to): mom, dad, Gabe, Chrissy, Abby, Lance, Chris, Jared, Clark, Keith, Robert, Debbie, Curt, Lonnie and many more!
