Moving in at SOMA

They have finally started moving in at SOMA. Unit 7B was occuppied yesterday with 6C scheduled for occupancy today.

The only problem is going to be all the construction still going on with the other buildings. I'd hate to try and get out with my car when the framers and block layers have the street blocked with their lifts.

Any ETA on your units completion/move in date slapahot?

No idea on a move in date, they were just putting pipes in the ground earlier this week. Based on the current time line it will be well into next year. Buildings 3 and 4 were at that stage in early January and still aren't even close to being framed complete.

If they are taking this long they must be doing a really good job of making sure everything is done right.

I went downtown with my sons to look at the model about 10 days ago on a weekday.
I thought the sales office was inside the model, so we walked in (it was unlocked) and looked for someone to talk to. There was no one there, but we got to check out the model...it was very cool.
But when I was downtown on this past Friday afternoon, the same model that was "done" 10 days ago, now has all the siding on the ground floor peeled off and there were half a dozen guys working on it.
Anybody know what happened?

You left the sink running?

I guess that the development owners were not happy withy the apperance of the siding and are having it changed. I know that there were many changes done inside all four of the units, after they were complete, that are currently done. Rooms enlarged, kitchen islands moved to make more room in the kitchen, eletrical and plumbing fixtures moved.

I suppose that all of this leads to the extra length it takes to complete the units. Although I'm told that there is a unit that just was finished drywalled today that will be occuppied soon after the fourth of July. Maybe they can rush them if they really have to.

I wondered where my 7 year olds blanket went

..kitchen islands moved to make more room in the kitchen..

My wife and I both thought the kitchen counter in the eastern most model could stand to be moved away from the sink/fridge/etc. It didn't look like you could hardly open the dishwasher without it hitting the opposite cabinet doors.

I got a look inside since they moved the island and you still cannot open both the oven door and the dishwasher at the same time. They could still move the island out more. In the building way in the back that they are working on it appears that there will be more room in there.

Although in some of the units they are cutting up concrete in the bathroom on the ground floor, not all of them but just some of them.
