Deconstruction started over the weekend!
The buildings are being picked apart and materials are separated into drywall, wood, plaster, metal, etc. It will all be brought to Revolution Recovery where the material is then processed by hand and by machine. All waste wood, metal, drywall, cardboard, paper, plastic, rubble, shingles and salvageable items are recovered and either reused or recycled.
Here are some pictures!

Today Greensaw delivered a truck load of wood sheets that will eventually become the sub-floor of the buildings. They were acquired from The Resource Exchange who recovered them from a struck Philly movie set. We will be walking on Philadelphia Cinematic history, ha ha.
Ted and I picked up the zoning permits today.
Time to get started renovating some buildings.
Stay tuned.
While I am impatiently waiting for an answer from zoning today, I thought I would put together a tour of the buildings in their current state.
This is how I felt when I first saw these buildings. It was love at first sight. I think many people would be scared away by the advanced water damage, but I saw amazing natural light, a great layout and lots of potential.
