Parting Shots

It was nothing but sunny skies (a first!) at the BCMC Build jobsite in New Orleans this October. In just one and a half days, a team of volunteers from the structural building components industry framed this three-bedroom home. The future homeowners, Karen and Theodore Williams (pictured at right), were on hand to watch the construction and meet everyone involved in the project. After the show, they posted their thanks on Facebook:

“We will truly miss all of the volunteers from BCMC. Thanks for making our dream a reality. We love y’all and God bless every one of you.”

To save time and forgo working on ladders, the walls for the Williams' home were built on the ground and then hoisted into place.

By evening, the roof was installed on the Williams’ home.
