up your architecture.

I got a new house today which will be at 336 Strangi Avenue, just a few blocks away from the Center. It is for a woman in her late 50's and her two nieces which she is the guardian of one of whom has a child. It's a pretty difficult site owing to the fact that there are three magnificent live oaks which all grow towards the middle. This wouldn't be a problem if we were building at grade, but this is in one of the major flood zones wrapping into the north of East Biloxi and therefore will need to be elevated 10 feet. This should prove to be an amazing opportunity to work within the framework of the three trees but we will have to get a special cutting permit (which I will be researching on Monday, thanks for the heads up Jason) to even prune back in order to build. Here is our survey and a few photos to whet your appetite for the new project!
