Meet you at the bar…

What a way to start the New Year….the heart and soul of the new space appeared yesterday. The team set up the foundation and frame for what is approx an eighteen foot bar (and “work” surface). Some of the old beams were used for the top frame. An illuminated panel will drop into the middle, […]

Much to report, and getting very close to the wrap. Well, closer. Still some items on the to-do list but we can now see the light at the end of the hallway. Here are some things taking shape: Communal sink and stand – They did a great job on the cabinet/stand for the giant sink. […]

Heaviest Sink Ever

The other day the communal sink arrived. The thing is giant…a bit over 6 feet long…and was a burden to get upstairs. It will be mounted on a heavy wood frame, and we’ll add some river rocks in the bottom of it (for added weight?).

After some internal “discussion,” and a gentle suggestion from those at the BAR, we wound up refurbishing the existing windows (were full of wired glass, and treated with a few bullet holes).

Comments Off on The Stage Is Set

Despite torrential downpours and first floor flooding (thanks to street level storm drain), progress was made last week. The most exciting part of which was the foundation for the stage that’s located between the kitchen/bar and work stations. The stage will serve as a lounge/conference area and a literal stage for presentations and performances. It […]

Matt’s Woodshop

Yesterday we took a lunchtime field trip up to Matt Decell's shop to look over wood grain/color samples, as we need to nail down selections for the open kitchen cabinetry and wall systems.
