2800 Lake Ave is coming along great! Demolition is complete. The kitchen and bathrooms have been completely gutted due to extreme wear and tear. The fire place, large deep freezer, and first floor partitions have been removed to form a more open floor plan. In addition, all carpet and basement shelving has been removed and a new sump pump and perimeter drain tile has been installed in the basement to prevent flooding. Once the rough carpentry work is complete, the rough in electrical, plumbing, and HVAC work will start and new joists and new sub floors will be installed where needed.

The Rehab Chronicles – 2800 Lake Avenue

change2800 Lake Avenue will be a change in use development project. We are transitioning a long-abandoned corner store on a residential side street into a renovated home. Changing a building’s use will require upgrading to certain systems and elements. For example, a residential villa becomes a restaurant, a warehouse becomes an apartment. The Building Code requirements may differ from one type of use to another.  Fortunately for St. Ambrose, we always provide new or upgraded systems to all our renovated homes. Current building codes for residential properties have been integrated into the re-development plan and the interior has been re-designed to meet the needs and desires of today’s homeowner. In addition, a new porch will be constructed to suit the architectural character of the neighborhood.

2800 Lake Avenue is still undergoing select interior demolition to prepare for the renovation. More to come!!
