As of September 10, 2011, a process I began in December, 2005, is complete: our building has a new roof. Both a new roof on top of the building and a new mansard roof with new tiles along the front facade. Here are some photos of the final stage of replacing and repairing the original 1928 Lucowici tiles:
This area experienced some water damage due to missing tiles; our adept roof contractors completed replaced the woodwork in this areas (and even recreated the original brackets). |
Once the broken tiles were removed, they were replaced with matching 1928 tiles our property manager found in Corinth, Miss. |

The Association board chose to repaint all of the tiles green since this was the historically accurate color. |
