Discription


The Petty Home, a turn-of-the-century Queen Anne, is being fully restored by Miles Honeycutt. Miles is the same general contracter who oversaw restoration of the Clapp-Ferguson home and Winston's Broken House, both in the Cleveland-Holloway neighborhood. Miles is restoring the home in keeping with historic elements of the original house to a single family dwelling. Check back often and watch this great home come back to life.

Retaining wall demolition


Work is well underway and lots of balls are in the air at the same time with the construction.

Here's a good shot of the retaining wall demo. The original retaining wall was falling over and in much need of being replaced. The new wall will be slightly lower than the original (coming up about 24 inches from the sidewalk) with the front yard graded down to meet it.

A related bonus is that the neighbors a few doors down have plans to use the demoed wall chunks in the construction of the home they are working on. Check out that blog here.
