OK - I just got a self taught crash course on posting pics...
Here's some new house pics (unfurnished, after renovations)
View from outside - we're on the top floor. Note the lack of elevators on this 1890's building.
Below is the HT/living room. This is shot from the Point of View (POV) of the TV, looking into the kitchen and dining room.
This shot is looking into the right corner where the TV, fronts, etc. reside. Surrounds and couch are on the left wall facing in.
This is the kitchen - no HT in there - but man, are we excited about the 6 burner Viking range, the stainless Sub Zero and the dual dishwashers (which you can't see) along with the natural Maple cabinets.
This is the POV from the couch looking into the dinign room/kitchen. Down the halls are the bathrooms, bedrooms, etc.
I'll get some pics up of the finished HT later. ENJOY.

what an awesome looking place. very clean and modern. but i gotta say, i dont think i would care for that 4 floor hike every day..(breathing deep).. not to mention, when you have to lug up groceries.. ?? i would rig up some kind of sling and pulley system, so i wouldnt have to make so many trips.
very nice place.. definitely post some HT pics when it is up and running.

Hello Capn_Picard,
Hope you are well. Looks like a very nice place, however I would not want to live under you with all that audio gear you are going to pack in there....hehe.
Later,
TonyM

Capn Picard,
Nice place you got there. In my opinion all it needs is the HT set up...moving the furniture in is unnecessary. You can just do the old "oh no...someone stole all the furniture" routine whenever you have guests over.

What was it that Craig said about that Mits TV? Wowie wow wow wow!! Adrien, congratulations. That is spectacular! The kitchen is awesome! If you can't be happy there, then it has nothing to do with the space. My compliments to you on the design and feel, and warmest wishes for many happy years in your home.

Wow! That is a really beautiful place. The exterior of a century old D.C. brownstone is graceful. Was it always divided into flats? Or was it, at one time, a single dwelling? I'm assuming the 3 windows on the top floor are your living room.
Holy Cats! What a kitchen! In that place, even I could be a good cook. NAH! Not even that place could make me a good cook. Trust me.!

Thanks, guys. The stairs, no doubt, will become the bane of my existence after some time. Maybe it'll keep me in shape enough to be a huge couch potato.
And its funny you mention the pulley system. After the 15th or 20th trip down the stairs bringing up boxes, my father made that same suggestion.
Anyway - now that I know how to, I will be sure to get some HT pics done. I have to admit that the place looks and feels very different with furniture etc. in it. These pics were taken just before we painted. After getting some stuff in there, it still looks very modern, but the furniture softens things up a bit and breaks up the long stretches of wall.

Wow, that is an amazing looking place.
How many lights are going down that hallway? It looks like a runway!
Congrats!

Great observation! I kinda glanced over it the first time, but now it's unmistakable!
Adrien, get to know your place from every angle. It helps if you can crab-walk and look at your place upside-down while imagining what it would be like to live on the ceiling.
