August 31-- Kiggins House Re-model Update

First time I have seen the front door opened. . .

More August 30 update -- Kiggins House Re-model

Temporary security.
The third floor in the back will be their personal movie room called Kiggins Theater after the man who built the house and started a chain of theaters named Kiggins, one of which is still operating in Vancouver.

Painting color samples to choose color for house that was consistent with history of house and their choice for today. CLICK on photo to see the colors better.

The back part will eventually disappear. It was added on and is not original part of the house. It held the staircase that was required for fire escape when the house was made into offices.

August 29 update -- Kiggins House Re-model



This bench has nothing to do with the remodel of the house except that one of Mr. Wood's workers brought it one day and told him tht people could sit on it while waiting for their tour of the house! They will leave the bench in the yard because Judith collects benches and will move several others to their new place when it is ready to occupy.
