Demo began upstairs. The entire bathroom, which we wanted to save, had to come out. The floor beams underneath are rotted. We are closing the doorway (where the "fireman" is standing) and opening to a full door opening (where I'm peeking through) into the bathroom on the 4th photo above. This room will be divided into two rooms, against Jonathan's strong-willed suggestion. But, this 600 sf apartment is where we are all going to live for the next 1 to 2-years.

(Oh.. Did I forget to mention that part?)
