Have you ever seen copper blended in with stone to create an address marker?

One step closer to completion of this area.

Accuracy for dowel rods are essential. Sometimes a tight spot can make drilling or achieving a proper mark can be difficult.

Great start to a dungeon/wine cellar

I love the rustic look. It will look fantastic when I stone over the block.

The Hub opened in 1904, owned by brothers Mone and Simon Anathan, on the corner of Fifth and Market streets as an exclusive men’s clothing shop. By 1909 it expanded to another building and began offering women’s, children’s and housewares. Business boomed, and plans were drawn up for an expansion in 1916. The First World War put new construction projects on hold, and it wasn’t until 1922. By the mid-1960s, the possibility of another retail establishment was gaining momentum in the name of the Fort Steuben Mall, with bigger stores, better hours and plenty of parking. The Hub was only open two nights a week, and parking often was a concern. By the late 1960s, the Hub purchased lots on Fifth Street, including the old Paramount Theater, and demolished them to make room for parking. In 1974, the Fort Steuben Mall opened featuring Sears, Kaufmann’s and, in 1975, Carlisle’s. Eventually 65 stores would occupy that space. The Hub was on the decline and merged in 1969 with L.S. Good, and the name was changed in 1978. In 1980 the store closed and that marked the end of an era. The building sat empty and neglected and was eventually torn down in 1993.

Recycled wood, salvaged cabinets and counter top, salvaged drywall and even the screws and pex pipe were leftovers. Total project cost: $0.00

Just starting the renovation of this old house. This place will need a lot of work to bring it back to a energy efficient and comfortable home. Join me to watch the progress from a neglected shack to a beautiful home.
