Rough in

We are now roughing in the house. Over the past two weeks we have had the plumber run his lines, HVAC install the mechanical systems, and the electrician install outlet and switch boxes, can lights and wiring.  We also had the low voltage installer pre-wire for security & audio visual.  Because the house will be four floors, we are installing an intercom system on each floor that will have a video feed of the front door.  This will allow us to answer and communicate to someone at the front door no matter where we are in the house.  We also had ceiling speakers, outdoor speakers, and surround sound for the great room pre-wired.  Inspections from the city will soon follow.

Google street view

If you entered our address into Google maps today, these are the images you will see.  Based on the surrounding neighborhood, I believe the pictures were taken at least one year ago.  The lot looks quite different in person.
