Cummings-Goolsby Residence

This Residence near the Arboretum, was originally a 1 story bungalow.

The building was tore down to the 1 st floor, the original brick was removed cleaned and stored at the site. Pin piles were placed along the east/alley elevation to support the foundation that had shifted down hill.

The lower floor was also remodeled, for a new bedroom and all new utilities, effectively creating a new 3 story home with 3 bedrooms and 3 baths.

Some of the details created; site built bent curved handrail for the stairs; 26 foot clear story columns; laundry chute integrated into the stair system and curved rafter tails.

Mendel Residence Addition, design by Anderson Architects

Near Seward Park, on Lake Washington.

MLWgc was contracted to add a 4^thstory addition to this Lake Washington residence.

This addition shows an extensive knowledge of framing to finish.

In addition to the complicated framing, starting with carrying the structural loads down 3 floors to the foundation, there were also the of access from the 3rd floor via a spiral staircase.

A separate heating/cooling system was needed and resulting duct work was installed into the floor framing.

The roof lines and the interior finish work that followed those roof lines was a fun challenge.

There was also an addition to the carport, with of GLBeams.
