1960s Clausen & Son Danish teak credenza. I'm currently pricing a white carrera marble slab to put on top.
right half of the stone bed was an existing flower bed. the new left half will hopefully be a frog habitat. pre-filling with water. we need to do a little more work on it yet.
This is an exterior shot of the hearth room addition in Town and Country. You can see Hibbs Homes was able to match the existing brick perfectly, which can be very difficult. The bay is home to a cute breakfast nook. You can also see the walkway and patio to the left of the photo. The colored concrete is boardered by stamped/stained brick pattern.

It seems rare to see a national chain fast food place in a commercial addition, but my guess is that Subway would be the most frequently seen nationwide in such a storefront.
Living in Vienna
In the 1970s, began a first wave of redevelopment of the existing old houses of the City of Vienna to raise the standard of living. In addition, around 16,500 new homes were built from 1972 to 1977. The housing shortage was eliminated. Now, new facilities should also better blend into their environment, turn themselves away from the traffic, they should be good accesible for the general public and most of all equipped with the necessary service of proximity. With this, also a basic idea of the "Red Vienna " from the 1930s moved back into the center: great importance was attached to socialization of living again. In 1978 the laying of the foundation stone of the 200,000th apartment since 1923 has been celebrated.
History
At the beginning of the 19th Century was located on the site of the present Gemeindebau (community housing) the inn "to the Austrian imperial crown", which was attended by Czech and Moravian ploughboys. It had to the front large guest house premises and to the rear a garden with two large courtyards, which formed a passage to the Great Mohrengasse. 1860 the predecessor building "from scratch new, three storeys high" had been built.
The architecture
The layout of the six-story building results from three nested within one another wings. These form both in Zirkusgasse as well as in the Great Mohrengasse a grassy inner courtyard. The building on three sides is bounded by a Straßenhof (street yard). On the left side the building in the Zirkusgasse adjoins to a listed building. The connection to the old building is made through a passage, four balconies and a terrace. The fronts of the building by plates are divided in three colors. White, continuous bands separate the floors. The basic color of the house is beige. It is each interrupted by three with dark green panels provided window axes in the arrangement of two to one. The windows are consistently divided. This is a for the construction period typical design innovation, deliberately deviating from uniformly continuous pitted windows hinges.
The name
The residential complex was named after Julius Bermann, union secretary and a member of the municipal council. Julius Bermann was born on 1st May in 1868 in Bojanowitz (Moravia) and on 7th January 1943 murdered in Theresienstadt (Bohemia). To him reminds a memorial plaque on the building.
Architect
Helmut Leierer - Helmut Leierer, born in 1931, studied at the Academy of Fine Arts in Vienna under Clemens Holzmeister. After years of practice with the architects Kitt and Lippert he was from 1960 as an independent architect in Vienna and Hollabrunn (Lower Austria - Wine district) active. Major projects included the Salzburg Airport, the Raiffeisen Bank in Vienna and public institutions in the wine district where the architect sought to preserve the cellar lanes.
Latest addition to the Tatraskoda Home for Fallen Cameras is this nice little compact 35mm Bierette, made in East Germany in the 1960s. Looks clean & ready to go, so I'll give it a whirl soon. Thanks to my mate Al who kindly bought this for me from a local antique shop - for £2!
Worth every penny, I say.
First week of October, 1995. It took me all summer to get this far. The interior is still bare concrete floors and wooden studs at this point.
Rear view of an appartment house which is being completely renovated and added on to. A beverage distributor used to have a large storage area under an equally large terrace which is now partially built over.
I had forgotten how many suprises await one during a renovation. Note to all: do not underestimate!

I think the addition of Gunnersbury to the tour was something I came up with on the day itself, so I jumped on the District Line for one stop and took a picture of the local landmark. Luckily its visible from the station. Unfortunately it's also very ugly. Yes, it's the home to the British Standards Institute..
For some background on this photo, see the Star Trek Tube Tour set page.

What a great day!
All the chunks of concrete that were cut out of the floor came up embellished with gravel ... people pay good money at home supply stores for this stuff!
This is Nadia. I asked Mike to name her and he said she looked like a Nadia. She's a FR Kyori Sato Skin is in.
I haven't been keeping up with these as much because there are so many now. But she's unique in her bubblegum pink! And what a name!

One of Prince George's oldest neighbourhoods is the Millar Addition, named after the original developer George Millar who bought some 200 acres for almost $60,000 dollars in 1913. He began developing the land the next year and some houses from the 1920s are still being lived in to this day. Its beautiful tree-lined streets are a hallmark. July 01, 2011.
The Brandist family welcomes Henry Quick.
Unlike other cordless vacuum cleaners, Henry Quick is a bagged cleaner. The bag acts as the waste collector and a filter. So far I'm impressed, Henry Quick, is picking up way more dirt than the Dyson V11 it is replacing. When emptying the Dyson fine dust can get everywhere.
Henry Quick comes with 6 pods, and 10 pack is about £13.
