Security Barriers down, film applied to the windows to protect from graffiti (a big problem-the kids love the acid etching!).Hoping to paint our frontage black, with a big logo at the end. We'll see if the city goes for it!

Built some stairs to descend from the bocce area, lots of other odds and ends tied up, but the focus on the panelling. Got our test wall up and running, lots of time devoted to which detailing feature would be used.In the end all agreed that the bottom right section of the wall, with horizontal trim running through the intersections, tied off with a nice vertical line, was the way to go.
Gonna look awesome!!
June 2 Rudy's!
Test run for the bar top-using slate from reclaimed pool tables. Polished up, with the various holes filled in creative ways, should look great!And the view across the street-Rudy's Can't Fail Cafe, co-owned by one of the members of Green Day, makes a splash!

Today things started to roll. We brought in an amazing group of carpenters, and they put the pressure on us to get things moving.Put strips up along bocce fire wall, ready for sheetrock and then panelling.
Started laying the floorboards on top of their moisture barrier whilst others were knocking out the crossbeams to go between the columns.
Began the adventure of designing the detailing for the mahogany panelling, and it's trim. This will eventually cover 75% of the walls.
Got the crossbeams over the backbar in place, the backbar itself will be made out of copper, very excited to see how it will turn out!
And as always, Glenn puts safety first while surveying the scene.
