Framing day 19

Framing day 19 and we are almost there. The house is really taking its shape now.

Here you can see that the edge of the roof top where the glass guard rail will be installed is now packed with wood and ready for roofing.

Parapet walls are all fully framed. The parapet wall here also serves as the guard rail. The photo below is the north-east corner.

Parapet wall on the south side.

Here’s the parapet wall on the west side.

The 3rd floor structure is also completed.

The roof is also done on the 3rd floor. You can see the pitched roof where it sheds water towards the east side.

This is a photo of what the house looks like from the street. There is one window opening on the 2nd floor not cut out. But otherwise this pretty much represents what the house will look like.
