House Photo + Carriage House
Here's a photo of the house (spring 2012) before renovation started. We have a long way to go :)
The house is three stories with a separate carriage house behind it.

The Beginning
In December of 2011 my father, Tim George came across 368 Linwood Drive. Anxious for a "project" he purchased the historical home and began the renovation process. Born in Clarence NY, Tim has recently finished the renovation of 760 Northland Ave. which now houses the corporation Niagara Frontier Custom Fabrication, a custom sheet-metal company. While he has spent much of his life working in the contracting business this will be his first historical mansion and he is excited to be part of the restoration of downtown Buffalo.
We hope to share the process of restoring the home on this blog and encourage comments and feedback, and of course the best way to check on progress is to drive by and check it out!
