The space in the basement is really starting to take shape with the framing of the walls and construction of the new stairway. You can really begin to get an idea of what the finished space will look like.
During week three it was difficult to see the changes that had taken place. A lot was happening, but it was more subtle and in smaller increments. That was not true during week four. The screech of power saws and drills was unending toward the end of the week.
In the basement, the new stairway occupies the southeast corner of what was the old womens' restroom. The stairway initially runs from west to east. There are six steps, then a landing, then the stairway turns north-south. There is a hallway that extends toward the west from the foot of the stairs.
Two of the original windows in the basement that were uncovered by the demolition of restroom walls will be retained as decorative features of the downstairs hallway.
