1700 Vine Street: Visions of a Sustainable Over-the-Rhine

This blog was created to chronicle the rehabilitation of 1700 Vine Street, a vacant, condemned building in Over-the-Rhine. Reid and I purchased the building in January 2008 and have been spending our evenings and weekends fixing it up ever since. Construction is moving slowly, but one day we will move in and call this former-disaster our LEED certified home. While rehab takes a lot of time, we are both learning a lot and having fun! Thanks for joining us on the adventure. - Patty

Making room for construction

This past weekend we replaced the pedestrian gate with an 11 foot gate that can accomodate construction vehicles in the vacant lot. We got a load of gravel to build up the lot to the edge of the sidewalk and we're ready for work to begin! Thanks Dad for all your help!
