About

This is the site to keep everyone posted on the Crack House.
 

Before you ask, yes it was a crack house.

Now it's a project.

A friend sent us the MLS listing because she thought it was funny.

In the details, well, there actually were no details, but it did mention "Alleged Crack House".  We thought it was funny too.

Then we bought it.

Possession date was October 3rd, 2006.  Within a few hours we had christened the house with wine, cheese, take-out Indian food and a few good friends.   

Read the on-going saga of destruction and construction.

Gene comes back!

Sunday 10 February 2008 at 9:02 pm

Good Ole Gene came back for a visit!  We missed him, and he still complained about the stairs.  That's ok, we complain about them too.   Gene did not disappoint, out came the angle grinder.  

 

We also had FOUR firetrucks down our street that evening...no, not because of some errant sparks from the grinder.  There was a small incident at the neighbour's house about 4 doors down.    The trucks werent' needed, but they couldn't back out of our one-way street because of the lack of adequate plowing by the city!

A basement wall gets a facelift

Another example of Lewis' handiwork.

This is the basement wall at the back of the house.  It looks much better now!
