Starting of the Porch

Sunday, 26 July 2009, 9:33pm

Everyday after I came home from work, I would grab the camera and walk around the house photographing each and every little step of progress that was made during that day. It was always exciting to come home and never really know what would be completed. The two pictures below show the first steps that were being made to build the front porch. We had some difficulties working with the City and getting our plans approved because of the property offset from the front. If you look at one of the pictures, all the houses on our street basically violate that city offset and we were denied. We were able to get away with using a cantilever support that doesn’t have columns that are directly attached to the house.
