The modern environmental movement started in 1970, funneling the energy of the anti-war protest movement and putting environmental concerns on the front page.

We hope you had a great weekend! It certainly was an exciting final day of the Master’s as Tiger made a comeback like none before and won his 5th Green Jacket. After overcoming a spinal fusion surgery, at 43 years old and trailing for the first 54 holes, he tapped in for a bogey on the 18th and victory was his! This is Tiger’s 5th Master’s win and is only surpassed by Jack Nicklaus with 6 wins. Congratulations to Tiger Woods!
The crew is tackling prep work and priming the walls and also covering the floors in advance of painting. Thanks!
Friday, April 12th: Hello and TGIF!
Well, we survived another April snow storm! I think parts of the state saw, snow, rain, sleet, hail, massive wind gusts, and even dust blown all the way from Texas- imagine that! At least this snow won’t stick around for too long as the weather seems to be warming through the weekend and into next week.
Golf fans rejoice! It’s Master’s Weekend (check the leader board here) and round two off and rolling with major champions bunched at the top. Time will tell who will make it to the 3rd and 4th rounds and finally awarded the famed Green Jacket.
The crew is finishing up on the 3rd floor and will be moving down to the 2nd floor to begin their wallpaper removal and prep work. The laundry, trash, and storage rooms on the 3rd floor will be completed as colors are selected. We’ll also be completing the residence doors as we move a little further into the project and will provide ample notice and details regarding that portion of the project. Thanks!
Thursday, April 11th: Hello and well to Minnesota’s finest spring weather! We kid…but we do hope that you’re staying safe if you need to be out and about driving!

Congratulations to Virgina as the NCAA 2019 Champion. They beat Texas tech in overtime and redeemed themselves after last year’s (first record) loss to a 16 seed. We sure enjoyed all of the activity and raving of Minneapolis as the host of this year’s Final Four!
It only seems fitting that you can get a free ice cream cone today at Ben and Jerry’s for ‘Free Cone Day‘ on the eve of a Minnesota snow storm in April! We’ll gladly take our spot in line for a tasty treat!
The crew is prepping areas for painting the alcoe wall accents as well as the main hallway color.

Friday, April 5th: Happy Friday Hillcrest! We hope you are all gearing up for a great weekend! Perhaps your weekend plans entail what our week has involved. Surely we jest, but anytime you remove wallpaper, it can get to be a little bit of a thrill ride! The fellas are skim coating the areas where wallpaper has been removed, and ceiling painting should be getting underway midday. After the mud has had time to dry, be forewarned, sanding will commence, and their will be lots of dust. We will do our very best to contain it, but it is the inevitable outcome of the nature of this work! Thanks for everybody’s cooperation as we kick things off…have a great weekend!
Wednesday, April 3rd: Hello and Happy Project Kick-off!
The crew is onsite and ‘off and running!”
We’ll begin on the 3rd floor with prep- this entails covering all surfaces not being painted; floors, light fixtures, etc. What does this look like? Lot’s of plastic, tape, and paper. As colors are still beging finalized, the crew will begin with wallpaper removal and wall prep. Thanks!
Monday, April 1st: Hello and Happy April 1st!

We’ll be painting your common area, residence, and elevator doors/frames//1st, 2nd, and 3rd, floor hallway walls and ceilings//storage room, laundry room, and trash room walls and ceilings.We’ll also be removing the wallpaper on the residence alcoves and elevator lobbies.

We are working out all of the fine print details and will post them shortly. We do know we’ll be starting with the hallways on the 3rd floor and working our way down to the 1st floor. Each floor with entail the removal of wallpaper, wall repair and prep, prep and painting of the ceiling, walls, and millwork.
We’re anticipating each floor to take the crew about 14-18 working days to complete; we’ll get a better idea of the crew’s pace once the 3rd floor is underway.
