Bennett Frank McCarthy Architects, Inc. Hi Alice Hatter,
Most of the windows were replaced with with new windows in the renovation for this project. We have some projects that retain original windows with storms due to historic district regulations.
If you would like to know more, please give us a call and we would be glad to connect you with the partner in charge of this project.
siding - I love the mitered corners on the siding. Is this wood siding or hardie plank, and do you have any tips on how we can get our mitered joints to stay tight? »
Bennett Frank McCarthy Architects, Inc. Hi Haegglund Architecture,
It is Hardie and we work with our contractor to install the siding with alternating lap miters as the manufacturer suggests. We were fortunate to have a highly skilled carpenter on this project. Feel free to call us if you have further questions - we would be glad to put you in touch with the partner responsible.

Bennett Frank McCarthy Architects, Inc. Hi Feliciati,
This roof is constructed from synthetic slate. Initially we laid out the pattern in a computer model, then refined it with physical color samples of the synthetic slates. We then met with the roofer on site and reviewed the pattern, mocking it up with the roofer to make sure we all understood how it would appear.
We would be glad to review this with you. Please feel free to give us a call and we will put you in touch with the principal in charge of this project.

I have a question regarding the construction of front porch railing - Was the second horizontal railing notched for the 2x6 slat to pass through or behind? »
I like the boxes that are made for the garden. I could do this at the location of where the trailer is now. For flowers in one box, vegetables in another box.
