Work in Progress - Anguilla, British West Indies

The last few months have been off the charts hectic, in a good way.

One of the projects I’m working on is a new beach house on Meads Bay Beach in Anguilla.  I don’t know how or why our job site suffered only a little damage during Hurricane Irma, the strongest hurricane ever recorded in the Atlantic.  Meanwhile, just down the beach, the Four Seasons had twenty million dollars worth of damage. We were very lucky.

Hotels have rebuilt and reopened.  Many of the damaged homes have been repaired.  There’s still some work left to do but things are moving forward.  I’m in awe at how quickly this tiny Caribbean island bounced back.

The construction should be finished in a few months.

Very early stage. The basement and cistern.

The ceiling almost completed.

Painting these high ceilings was a lot of work for our crew.
