Havn't been up close for a long time, but it still looks good from the road. Every piece was clear coated on the backside with Cabots, then stained on face after install. This was all D-select stock, picked through for knots bigger than a dime. Some may have slipped through.This was completed in 1994, I'll try some recon photos and repost.

I was working for the GC at the time, we framed, trimmed and sided this one. Everything else was subbed.

Reminds me of my own house. Done the same time, '95.
My southern exposure has not held up very well, using STK probably didn't help matters any. Already replaced the clerestory siding. I broke mine up with stone work on sections of the front and back walls.

Loneframer, just to change the subject for a minute.
Do you travel the road from Millville to Hammonton very often? Reason I'm asking is the wife and I went to Wheaton Village a few weeks ago and there is a log home being built on the northbound side of the road. If I remember it is not far from that funky intersection with the Wawa. I was wondering if that log home was a companies model or if it was somebody's private home? There weren't any signs up and nobody was there when we drove past it.

I can't say because I havn't been up that way for awhile. My sister lives in Hammonton and I'm overdue to visit, I'll check it out. It's Rt. 54 right? Or is it Lincoln Ave. before you get to the Wawa?

I always thought it was a bit much, the footprint of the building is over 5000 sq. ft. Still feel a sense of accomplishment every time I see it though.

I can't remember exactly. I'm pretty sure it was not much farther past the Wawa. It is right on the road in an open field. You can't miss it. BTW, if you like Mexican food we stopped at a place right before the RR tracks as you come into the center of Hammonton. Good margheritas

I did some work on the historical restoration of the Hammonton Railroad Station back around 1996. Replaced a lot of missing trimwork, replaced all the ropes on the sash weights on those enormous windows, rehung the giant doors facing the tracks, etc....BTW, me lika de marguerita's
