This is a continuation of the ongoing Water and Whitney Street Condo Project, Leominster, Massachusetts.
Some greenboards are going up to receive new siding, but there's plenty of places where the outer walls were in such bad shape, they were removed, exposing the post-and-beam construction, and you can see some water damage even done to those, albeit not badly. It also appears the building is gutted, and once the exterior is completed, will be ready for interior work. Some portions of the building were in such bad shape, they're being taken down, whether in-part, or alltogether. They also jacked up one part of the building, as there no longer is a giant dip in one of the rear walls.
Apperently, the large broadside wall that was "pushed in" by the hill might be because the posts were actually recessed inwards. It looks like that's how it was built, since it was bucked in up to that point, but they could've been moved back. Doesn't look like it, though. The posts above it look too straight to have been bent. The recessed beams also don't look new, either.
There was enough for an update, so here it is!
