We have finally passed the midway point and we can see the light at the end, although sometimes we have to squint to see it. I haven't posted in about a month because the job has been in that stage where there isn't much visible progress. The wiring is done and the wallboard is up. So now the taping and spackling drags on. I have been telling Steve for the last 3 weeks that we have 6 more weeks to go. I think he is catching on.
Unfortunately, that doesn't mean that we have spent the last month skipping happily along. It has been filled with drama. We applied for building permission and got city approval to take 3' of dead end hallway space to locate a window onto the light well. Not everyone is happy about that. Oy!
One of the bright spots has been our trips to the millworker's shop in Brooklyn (yes we do travel across the river.) They have done a beautiful job with the walnut kitchen cabinets. 
This is one of the island cabinets that will be set in a stainless steel frame.
And 5 coats of linseed oil later... Ira is very excited.
