We got our first look at the steel frame for the main stairs this week and saw how they will fill the space in the tower. Meanwhile, the mechanical rough-ins continued. The electrician started installing light cans and wiring on Friday and helped us figure out how to light the downstairs hallway when most of the ducts and piping run through its ceiling. The fireplace was installed in the living room on Monday. The exterior finish crew continued to install more windows and doors, and cedar siding. However, they ran into a problem on Friday when the battery on their suction attachment was not strong enough to hold our large windows so the crane could lift them over the house and into place. We are awaiting Plan B.
