The floors have been tile (not ceramic) and the walls have been wood paneling. The building was built in the early '60s. I have not seen the plans and don't know exactly what materials they are going to use. Soon! We're all just excited about the improvement that can be made with the amount of money available. They are really just going to gut that whole section of the building and do over! dp __________________________ David M.

It will be interesting to see how that will change the perception of voicing in those little rooms. It's going to make for a chaotic summer though! dp Dave Did you have carpet on the floors in these rooms? Will you have them in the "new and improved" rooms? I think that makes a big difference. That along with Drywall walls, instead of cinder blocks or concrete. Wim -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
