The Newport Tower Progress

The Newport Tower at 1120 Rhode Island is moving along rapidly.  We're working hard to finish the framing by the end of next week so we can begin the plumbing and HVAC.  Also, the floor crew is coming in next week to start patching and repairing the existing flooring.

The carpenters have removed the old windows and are reframing the openings to prepare for the new ones.

One mason is working to repair the brick where the old fireplace shaft was located.

The interior walls are going up on each floor.

In the basement, a crew is using a conveyor belt to remove the dirt so we can achieve a greater ceiling height.

The digging is nearly done and we should be able to start underpinning next week.
