I am over the moon! Jeff and I went away for 10 days for our honeymoon and we received the nicest surprise upon our return. We decided to drive past the land where we are so anxiously waiting to have our house built. Surprise! Four earthmovers and lots of changes. The house that was on the property was gone, except for the staircase. The last of the tree roots were in a pile and a new refuse bin was being dragged up to the middle of the site.
This, of course, is just the beginning. Once the earth has been properly leveled, retaining walls and drains need to be added. Luckily, the snow has pretty much melted away so the earth should not be as frozen. We have had a week of warm spring weather which is helping out tremendously.The City of Pittsburgh Zoning board is still asking for details about our landscaping? I didn't realize Martha Stewart would be watching over us. They are also wondering about our "intended use" of the rooftop deck. Vegas style club was our first thought.... Sheesh!
At any rate, we still need to finalize the spec sheet and sign out loan so there are many more items to take care of prior to getting too excited. But for now, Hallelujah!
