Location: Mansion - Basement - Hall (E) / Stairhall (R)

Between the joists there is a finished plaster wall finish that indicates the stair floor above is later. A fragment of wallpaper, about 18" square, exists in one section between joists. This wall appears to have been a continuous finshed wall between basement and first floor when an earlier stair butted against the west wall.

Report Author: Joseph D. Lahendro
Report Date: 4/29/1999

Notes: Video and digital photos of subfloor beneath parquetry in north stair on first floor. An infilled rectangular opening for the former stair exists against the west wall. One board used for floor infill appears to be a salvaged painted wainscot, approximately 26" wide and 7' to 8' long.

Report Date: 4/29/1999
Location: Mansion - First Floor - Stair Hall (E/R)
Work Type: Demolition
Notes: Video and digital photos of two floor boards at the top of the north stair. These boards are obviously salvaged wood trim boards, due to their painted decorative reeding. The finished decorative sides face the basement below. These boards are very similar to the reeded decorative trim used in original first floor door frames.
