Late last week we received our building permit from the City of Lincoln. This week the contractors are finishing up the electrical and plumbing rough-ins to allow for insulation and drywall can start next week.
More demo in the basement – what was known as B2 is now gone – the wall between the living area and the beds has been taken down. The far back part of the room will become the new electrical service room. The front part of the room will be a quiet study area and possibly a computer lab. The basement bathroom was cleared and will be replaced with new water-saving fixtures.
Individual shower stalls will be installed next week in the 2nd and 3rd old bathroom. Each bathroom will have two private shower stalls and a small dressing area.
The electrician has been busy installing can lights. The Board decided to use can lights in the rooms and hallways instead of traditional light fixtures. This will avoid the constant battle of replacing broken fixtures.
What was Room B2 — standing in the living room — looking to the south (the old electrical panels are on the wall). A new wall will be put up in the back to serve as the electrical room. The floor will be leveled where the beds use to be and this will be a new study/computer room.
Basement bathroom has been gutted.
New shower stalls. These will be installed next week.
Can light in the new room 200.
