Building Chicago
About Us






Before and after shots of a facade renewal.  This house needed to have its parapet be rebuilt.  we used the existing brick and followed the original pattern.

I also wonder who thought that it would be a good idea to stucco over two front windows.  Once they were back in, along with a new front door, the house had a lot more interior light.


This house needed a new kitchen.  It was quite an interesting design, however, to have the 1980's linoleum go straight up from the floor to the counter top.  I almost hated to take it out!

   

 

Paxton Properties rebuilds with respect for the original workmanship of our built environment.

The managers have backgrounds in urban development, business, and urban planning.

It is hard to know, but we like the pink!  When we did this bath, we started it with off white walls, but it did not do the vintage tub and sink justice, so we opted for a 1950's pink, offset with the black and white mini subway marble tiles.
