Some BEFORE and CURRENT photos of the first floor. AFTER photos are a long ways away.

In the CURRENT shots the original external wall to the house is exposed. Around the 1920s the house was expanded backwards into its lot— and apparently they just framed the back wall of the house into the middle of the house! Crazy. We’re going to span that chunk of brick with a steel beam to allow us to open the space wide up.

Photos below after the jump.
