Have You Ever Seen a “Teardown Neighborhood”? I gotta say… I really am NOT a fan of that trend. And I don’t see how it makes sense. I think the only way it CAN make sense is if one completely dismisses the potential of a BRILLIANT REMODEL! And why would one do something like that? […]
What I Do For Fun…
I pretty much only post about remodeling and construction here on RemodelingGuy.net, but there’s more to me than that!
