Not quite “extreme makeover.” More like - upgrade kitchen and bathroom, take down some walls and maybe add an extra garage and laundry room. OK - maybe that is pretty extreme. The goal is to have a master plan and do portions at time - ya know- that dang money thing! If you can do [...]

We had another organizing job Uptown and honestly - there is no change in color or huge lines or signs that say Uptown, Garden District etc… I guess I can actually say I have seen the real “Garden District” now.
