Window of Opportunity

BEFORE

The 2nd floor bathroom gets a window makeover.

From the outside you might wonder what's wrong with this window and why would we be changing it.  The answer - from the inside it's really inconvenient.

The new shower will be located up against this wall, with the shower surround taking up 3/4 the height of the wall.  As I have had the opportunity to shower in front of a window before in every rental I've ever lived in: it's cold, the wood rots and, obviously, it gives fodder to spectators on the street.

This weekend Trent spent 3 days cutting out the window, filling the hole, re-framing the original window and viola! 
It now looks like this!

AFTER

On the interior, this window will be a transom over the shower. 

I, personally, have little to show for this weekend since I spent the entire time in the closets painting.  So much for claiming to be "done" with that.  It's done for real now.  Next week -the floors will actually get done and things will come together.
