By the end of April our project was finally moving at full speed. After we removed the old roof (with some outside help), our general contractor stepped in and starting building the new roof. During that same time they started removing the green siding that really defined the house. We use to instruct many people to look for the green house at the end of the street to find our place. With that gone, we were able to see the true foundation of our 1895 house. The old brick is really cool to see, but not too comfortable knowing that is what is keeping your house up.
You can also notice that the concrete for the new front porch was placed giving the front of the house a nice approach and a future location to put some confortable chairs. The old fence is still visible when looking at the backyard. We also boxed out of the chimney.
