Construction Progress- The Gracie

Even though it's freezing outside, we're still getting a ton of good work done at our condo project in Columbia Heights.  It's so cold that if the masons don't keep a massive heater within 2 feet of their mortar fix it instantly freezes solid.  That's pretty cold.  Fortunately, the building is insulated now and most of the windows are installed so it's not so bad inside.

The back of the building has been fully painted and most of the windows are installed.  Once the sheetrock crew is working inside next week, we'll start on the rear decks.

Amazingly, the masons are still installing more blocks on the roof for the parapet walls.

The roofers worked today to install the new roof membrane.

Here's the view of the loft in the top unit.

From the roof, there's an incredible view of the Washington Monument to the south.

To the east, you can see the convention center and the Capital.

Inside, we used a special cleaner on the exposed brick.
