So far...
When we were originally offered the shop next door I did this rough drawing to determine how the space could be used. The bathroom wasn't movable, otherwise it would have been a no-brainer to put it in the back. All told, this will give us roughly four times the storage/retail space of our current retail set up.
Below you can see a picture of our back wall. This wall connects to the store next to us (the one we are expanding into). Kodiak Construction marked out the new entrances and cut us some nice new holes. This particular back wall has about everything running through it that you could imagine- electrical wires, phone lines, plumbing (it all has to be moved). The second picture shows the new hole they cut from warehouse 1 into warehouse 2 which then feeds into what will be the new retail shop. Warehouse 2 will become our receiving area. Once everything is finished I'll do a draw up of the entire building.
And Below these two pictures I will be adding a photo of the new shop in its current state (it was a hair salon before and we gutted it). You can see a hint of the new shop/ salon in the second picture set- there's a mural on the salon wall.
We're making good headway. Really at this point we're just waiting on carpet and then we can begin the shelf and counter installation. The entry way to the new store is finished up. Below are a couple of other constructions pictures.
