    Shoutout to the patient Hitsville tour guide who has to suffer rhythmically challenged visitors. House looks great. Wish you had shown more pics of finished exterior.

    Well done, fellas! You all did a great thing, helping to restore that old beautiful home. Reminds me of Season 1. Dorchester was pretty run down too, and feeling the recession. TOH did it justice.
    Thanks for taking care of my home town, and come back to Detroit any time! 😊

      @Brian Glade the architecture not the current condition fool. Detroit used to be one of the richest cities in America until white flight.

    Companies complain that there are not enough trades people to hire. Some of this is their own fault.
    Companies used to train interns and apprentices but in cost cutting moves they eliminated them.
    Young people need to be trained in the trades if there is going to be a next generation of trades people.

    I wish This Old House and HGTV would do more episodes of transformation of whole blocks that need some love in down trodden cities..
    Neighborhoods can be saved if local people can get some help and education starting a business doing restorations.
    There needs to be more training of local students in plumbing, carpentry and electrical trades.

    I agree with the first comment.
    TOH usually does upper middle class projects. This house is for a fireman's family. That type of population and lower middle class as well would make for great TOH projects.

    I love this, but the attic insulation was premature. Tommy knows there are no ice dams in summertime, and the electrical should have been replaced first, and the attic floor sealed etc.
