As-hole Built Series: Here is a post-it…
You all know we love as-builts (eye roll) … and Los Angeles 1920’s hillside houses are our very favorite to field verify. The boss man innocently handed us two post-its with some sketches for the areas that we needed to focus on for our new Linwood project and we thought oh how great! We only…
