Skinner House Addition and Remodel

Presented here is this crude format are some pictures of our house addition and remodeling. My original idea was to present the images in a time lapse format from different points of view. It didn't take long for the construction to complete obstruct my "points of view". So here is as much of the time lapse as I could get before walls obscure the landscape.


• View from the South East corner of the lot
• View from the North East corner of the lot
• View from the South side of the (old) house.
• View from the North side of the (old) house.

The earthquake tie downs are also pretty massive. The blue and black cable is for my computer and cable TV.
