[quote=Anonymous]My apartment is in a 110-y/o building, and we have renovated every inch of it. Pros: lovely original details, masonry walls that help with soundproofing, high ceilings Cons: radiator heat is hard to regulate, closet space is limited Renovation issues: • replacing doors and windows was a pain because they aren't "standard" sized • lead paint and asbestos abatement may be necessary if your tearing out walls or floors • we found all kinds of weird stuff when we opened walls in the kitchen and bathrooms . . . mystery plumbing, old gas lines that we couldn't move, weird electrical wiring[/quote]
