It’s interesting that, at the moment, we have three projects underway that have us attempting to reassemble the original appearance of the buildings. The new façade here at 207 Garden is already giving the building a much brighter look and feel.
The exterior is taking shape, and the new floor plan inside is emerging. The shape of the roof to come is now discernible -- and with the new framing underway on the third floor, you can also get a clearer picture of how we determined the shape of the historic roof. Basically, any old boards that are straight on the third floor are new.

Our friends at Central AHEC asked if I would take a photo of them for the holidays. I thought I would share it here, too, since we share our office space with them here at Veeder Place. This sharing space works really well -- "co-working" maybe? -- and we hope they gain as much from this as we do.
Debra Bogstie did a story on the rehabilitation of 1 Imlay Street and some of the discoveries our crew has made while working on this site -- finds that include a shoe and a wedding invitation from 1878. You can view the story as long as the link remains live. The story features great shots of the shadow lines that indicated the window crowns that had been in place as well as of the window crown we did find. Also, Chris Montross came over to be interviewed on behalf of Aetna, which is the major funder for this project. Unfortunately, Chris didn't make the final cut, but we appreciate his coming over to support our project!
