Celebrating The Small Things
I am celebrating my new balcony railing has been installed! It has not been an easy job. The lower floors weren’t too bad but the upper floors took some muscle and care. Not easy to remove the old and lower it to the ground then hoist the new and install it. The crew was super nice and polite and did a great job. They worked fast and cleaned up after themselves.
The lower floors weren’t too bad but the upper floors took some muscle and care. Not easy to remove the old and lower it to the ground then hoist the new and install it. I live on the top floor and the crane/hoist only worked to the floor below me. The new railings would not fit in the elevator so they figured out how to bring them through an apartment below my floor and lift it over the open atrium railing. It was quite fascinating to watch.
While the guys were doing the work I took a book downstairs and read in the lobby. Taking the old railing out and installing the new was noisy! When they were done I came back upstairs and walked into the apartment and looked out the glass door and it was breath-taking. The improvement of the look and view is amazing. I feel like I am living in a treehouse!
I did get some before pictures but don’t have after(s) yet. I want to show off my balcony but it will have to wait a few days. I think this is called a teaser. 😉

Congrats on the new railing!
Thanks! It is wonderful.
I love a teaser! Congratulations on your new railing and fresh new view!
Thanks, Pix. It is a wonder to see the world from my treehouse.
Congratulations on your new railing. Just in time for spring!
I am looking forward to seeing how all the seasons unfold before me.
How fun to have a new look inside and out! I can’t wait to see the photos, it sounds like it was quite a process to get the new railing done. Enjoy!!
Preparing for the install was amazing. I am going to try to get pictures this week when they work on the last group to be installed. I am enjoying the views.
Awesome Pat, the blessing of a breath taking view, within your own home, is something to celebrate (smile) I’m happy for you. Abundant blessing Pat and enjoy your weekend!
Thank you, Ann.
Well, this sounds exciting. Dawn, dusk, storms, these should all provide entertainment. I look forward to photos! Enjoy. Hugs!
It is so beautiful! Some people want privacy panels put on but I am hoping it will be individual homeowner choice and not mandated.
