The foundation is solid stone (mortored) and is around 18 inched thick... It also has some basement that you can stand up in in the oldest portion... That's where the original kitchen was and there was a big fireplace down there... The fireplace is still there tho the chimney was removed in 1888 when it was rebuilt into the Hotel Lauranace (after "Laura")... The rest of the building is crawl-space which I know better than I'd like to... lol... No, not so lol...

BTW, I failed to mention taht all the common areas (halls and common restrooms (ADA complient) are drywalled and painted... Four apartments are also drywalled and painted... Kitchen cabinets that were in there have been freshened up and installed...

I am trying to get the "couty" to buy the building because the one they are in is now only old but condemned and dangerous... It is the fiscally responsible thing for them to do but they are Repubs so that means they are trying to find a way out of not doing it...
