A Nekkid House

Demolition has begun on the house. The construction crew has taken off most of the stucco and it's like somebody stripped the skin off of it to disclose the guts underneath. If you thought it was ugly before, wait until you see the it now!

The front from the southwest



The gray stuff left in the walls is insulation



The rear of the house from the east



This is a close up of the back. Some of the old tar paper is still on and a lot of the insulation has come out of the wall.




There's all our stucco and faux stone in the dumpster.



Here's a view from the inside. It's easy to see all the cracks in the walls now. All of this plaster will be replaced by new drywall soon.




Here the plaster is bulging out from the wall and falling off just by the impact of what the construction crew has been doing to the outside. No interior demolition has happened yet.
