Undercroft kitchen progress






The remodeling proceeds on the undercroft kitchen. Most of the plumbing and electrical work is complete. A new "lining" on the lower three-quarters of the wall, called FRP (Fiberglass reinforced polysomething.....) has been put up. The paint color above the FRP will be a light shade of blue. We're close to selecting the cabinet colors and the electrostatic painting of those should begin soon. As you can see from the photos, the ceiling still has to go in, as does the floor. A glass block window has been installed in the south call to match the one on the east wall (yes, that is someone's hand putting in the blocks). The new lighting alone does so much to enhance the look of the place. The range hood still needs to be cleaned and painted (any volunteers to scrub a range hood?).

In the upstairs kitchen, the cabinets have just been painted and look very nice. That was an "add-on" to the project, but the need became very apparent when we reinstalled old cabinets in a newly done kitchen.

Meanwhile, the upstairs spaces continue to get lots of use. Lots of hospitality goin' on!

Grand re-dedication - September 12! Should be fun!
