Scope of Work: This project was unique in that it was the reconstruction of a home destroyed in Hurricane Sandy so the site has uncommon zoning characteristics with a separate, detached garage in front of the house. Given its location in a Special Flood Hazard Area (SFHA), all utilities and equipment are located above the Design Flood Elevation (DFE) on the 1st floor. In fact, the water heater is located behind Senna (the dog) underneath the stairs.
