We Moved
We have moved two weeks ago into our new place. We have completed the renovation of the rental unit and have decided to move there while we await the arrival of our zoning exception from the City of Chicago. We have been waiting for the arrival of the permits for two months now, but I really believe it is going to happen now. For a fun story of Andy’s trip to City Hall, stay tuned. Meanwhile, here is a before and after shot to give you an idea of what our place is like.
Our Kitchen before - notice the four or five layers of linoleum floor. There were gas pipes run outside the walls, cabinets made from plywood, lacquered plywood as decorative wood on the sides of the floor.
Our Rental Unit Kitchen After rehab. We have also changed the bath tub, installed new sinks, re-tiled the bathroom, put new floors in the dining room, put in central heat and air, removed and re-run obtrusive gas pipes, put new carpeting in the bedroom and installed a new washer and dryer.
