Taken 5 January. Many more people have moved in.
Does the Building Code trigger the need for a landing at the top of those stairs or is that requirement only triggered once there's a certain (higher than here) number of stairs?I’m curious to see how the brick screen walls look on the inside. The bricklaying must be done very carefully so the mortar on the inside face is neat and consistent (not sure if the brick was installed first or the glass), and no construction debris gets stuck between the glass and the brick wall. I originally thought the brick screen walls were for the balconies which makes more sense as it will provide shade and privacy while allowing air circulation.
This is going to be a maintenance nightmare to clean the glass behind the brick. Maybe power washing is a solution?
There is a weird townhouse unit that has been on sale on assignment for ages. It was a triangular shaped corner unit with windows on one side. The unit was large but being triangular it had a ton of wasted and awkward spaces, effectively losing lots of usable space.
All of the townhouse units don’t have any landing in front of their entrances, just steps immediately in front of the door which is a shame.
Yes, the faux I-beam detailing around the windows turned out very nice.
