The Newport Tower-Moving Along

The project at 1120 Rhode Island Ave. is picking up speed and moving along well.  We're now on pace to deliver in May.  We've already received a lot of interest-without even marketing the units yet- and anticipate pre-selling several of the units prior to completion.

We began removing the old windows to get ready for the new wood windows that are coming in later this week.

Inside, the floor installers worked to remove damaged flooring and patch floor pieces that were in better condition.
The crew worked diligently to tooth the new pieces in so the seams are invisible.

The flooring that they used for repairs were pieces we removed from elsewhere in the building, such as in the new hallway and the bathrooms.

The plumbers were also here today to run the new pipes.

The carpenters had to take a break from framing windows in order to remove some old plaster.  Check out how big the windows are in this building.


The turret in the penthouse is fully framed and is incredible.

In the back penthouse unit, the balcony windows are all framed and ready for installation.

This building has all sorts of incredible original details, like the brick here.

The new steps are in place.
