HUGE Building Resto project

I can really appreciate these efforts. I restored 170 year old home lived in by the inventor of the first working typewriter and solar compass. At the time of my purchase the house was destined for demolition. With a lot of TLC, Tons of Lumber and Cash, it has been saved for decades to come.
Enjoy the process as this preservation will become part of yours and the communities legacy. One other suggestion, there are many preservation grants available so hopefully you can take advantage of those.

Lynn, that is one impressive undertaking. We lose historic buildings every few months in Detroit, and the architecture is gone forever. Wish there were more advocates like you and Crush here in MI....

Owning a 100-year-old house myself I can only imagine the amount of work needed to restore and maintain something 10x the size.

Keep the updates coming.

Very worthwhile project Lynn, and the right guy for the job.

Lynn,

I applaud YOU! What a great undertaking. You Sir are to be commended. Remember: "It's only original Once" as in Cars, but in Buildings it takes a special person of vision to bring something back in History for future generations to enjoy. Hats off to You and your efforts.
