demolition

the store is totally unrecognizable now. the walls are nothing but piles of nails and shards of wood scattered about.


hard to believe, but this will one day be a bathroom.


in six months, there will be a bed in this spot.


back there will be a closet.

today, the wobbly little balcony was taken down and it immediately made the postage stamp backyard feel much airier.


the dust-covered demo guys, who i am so sad i didn't snap a picture of (i'll try tomorrow), tried to reassure us by saying "it sure is a handsome building." maybe not now, but it will be.
