In an effort to gain some much needed space, we decided to rip out the old chimneys. We weren't planning to use them and although they add a little architectural detail, the space is more valuable. Earlier this week, I showed what the chimney removal looks like from the roof.
Here's a look inside. First floor before.
After.
Second floor during demo.
And after.
Apparently, Beau removed each brick, one at a time. It's a lot of bricks.
Our new skylight. Just kidding. Kind of.
Looking down.
Looking up.
Beau was surprised to find that the chimney had no liner. I guess he thought that these were originally working fireplaces. Without a liner, he's thinking they must have been originally intended for a gravity heat system.
