Builders Blitz - Day 2

Our second day of the Habitat for Humanity Builder's Blitz was incredibly productive!  We finished a roof, all of our HVAC, electrical, and plumbing rough-ins, and we were able to install windows.  What a beautiful day for building up our community!

 

Habitat Builder's Blitz 2012

Day 1 - Framing

Breaking Ground

We have much to look forward over the next few months, and it has been an exciting Spring season already!  Structures has been busy with new custom construction for Design Build clients and ReStructure projects in Mt. Pleasant, Daniel Island, and Isle of Palms.  And two of our Design Build projects recently broke ground!

The first, a Clarke Design Group designed custom home, will be nicely situated on the marsh in Mt. Pleasant's I'On Village. 

The second home to break ground this month is in Daniel Island Park and is designed by Cobb Architecture.

We have great clients to work with on these new custom homes, and we're really look forward to seeing both take shape!  Stay tuned for updates and photos on these Design Build projects.

A Hero Named Knox

Running out to Isle of Palms to check on our ReStructure full house renovation, I pulled up and parked in my normal parking spot.  I was meeting up with the electricians to discuss a few final details when all of a sudden, Project Manager, Knox Beattie comes walking towards me "all chill" and says, "I think you're getting a parking ticket." I proceed to run out like a mad woman to plead with the officer for a warning instead of a ticket because it appears I can't read the "No Parking" sign that's right next to my front right tire. Funny thing is, I've park there every single time I've walked the Palm Boulevard home and have NEVER noticed the sign. Appears that our Structures sign draws my eye instead of the one police officers like to enforce. :)

Thank you Officer, I won't do it again! And thank you Knox for saving me. Who knows how much I would have "donated" to the Isle of Palms for a careless parking ticket!

Not one of my brighter moments. . . :)
