With the help of a man named Danny, we managed to pull down all the remaining pegboard and panelling off the walls. In the process, we revealed another beautiful wooden door that is original to the structure. The hinges look to be in good shape. The pull-locks still work. Lori and I would like to open the door up and make it operational. If we can't, we will still leave it uncovered as a decorative element.

As you can see in the photo, studs and electrical wiring need to be removed. There is also a concrete slab on the outside. Hopefully the doors open inward like the others.

We will definitely be hiring Danny again. He was a great worker, and just an all around nice guy. Turns out he also works for some friends of ours, including the previous owners of the building.

While Danny did most of the removing of pegboard, Lori and I cleaned other areas and swept. I also spent about an hour removing a bunch of old wiring. Security alarm system, sensors, bells and the like were all strung up around the space with staples. The good thing is all the wiring is copper. GOT THAT SCRAP FEVER ITCHING ME AGAIN! :)

We will be framing in one area for storage, then sheet rocking the place to get it ready for hanging, selling, making, teaching and hosting ART.

Next Saturday, September 7, is Alley Day in Boston. It's kind of a community yard sale. We plan to set up some tables sell a bunch of stuff that was left in the building. Most of it will be just $1 a piece!
