Well folks, it's been a while since I reported on the construction project going on next door. The construction people seem very diligent about showing up for work at 7:00 am sharp and I could see some progress over there. Finally on Monday I got around to taking a few photos.
This is the side of the house that faces mine. So when I look out my kitchen window this is what I'll see.
This is the front of the house facing the street. I've just realized looking at this photo that although this house looks like a cape, it might be a colonial where the first floor is actually below grade. All I know for sure is that there are two floors below the one you see here and the bottom one looks like a typical cellar.
This is a shot of the first floor that is below grade. I was mystified by that hole in the floor in the middle/right of the picture. When I reached the back of the house it became obvious what it was.
It was the stairway to the cellar. Duh!
This is the photo of the back of the house. I think this fairly represents the slope from the street to the back of the house. All I can think of when I walk around this property is "thank God I don't have to push a mower HERE!" It is quite steep up that incline to the street level.
I hope my new neighbors (whoever they are) will appreciate this journey on the construction of their new home!
