Framing the Firehouse - 20 July 2011



Its fascinating to see a building being framed and amazing to realize what goes in to the buildings around us. We are so fortunate to have a small team of highly intelligent, gifted and dedicated heritage carpenters who are putting this building together for us. They work hard, but take the time to think things through and plan out their work. Colin Edwards, Brad Quarrie and Michael Murphy of Edwards and Son Restoration are tops in our books.
First, they connected the sill plate to the frost wall. Then they were able to start building the walls and raising them. By the end of the first day of framing we had our eastern wall.
