Our Princeton architects were given a fantastic opportunity/challenge to design a 12,000 square foot, state of the art, custom home on this gorgeous lot in the Pretty Brook neighborhood.
The Lasley Brahaney Princeton construction team begins construction! The lot is cleared and the tracking pad is in place.
The pool is being built prior to construction of the house due to the very tight site constraints.
The pool and jacuzzi shell is complete.
The foundation of the home is excavated and the footings are formed.
The concrete footings are poured with rebar reinforcement projecting up for the foundation walls.
The forms for the concrete foundation walls are being erected.
The forms for the foundation walls are complete.

The foundation walls have been poured, the forms have been removed, and the walls are partially waterproofed.
The waterproofing is complete and the main support girders for the first floor decking are installed. The steel columns rising out of the foundation will support the second floor deck.
The basement floor is prepped and the waterproofing protection board is installed on the exterior perimeter walls.
We were lucky to get a day break in the rain and the concrete foundation floor is poured!
