228 full.JPG (187043 bytes)238 Summit is a three bedroom townhouse.  It is located in Ethel Terrace which is a row of five brick townhouses on the corner of Summit and Washtenaw, directly across from the water tower.

When Flo-Mar Apartments began managing 238 Summit, there were no tenants living in the apartment.  Flo-Mar saw this as a wonderful opportunity to make some improvements before bringing in new tenants.238 kit demo.JPG (146729 bytes)

As you can see from the picture to the right, the first thing we decided to work on was the kitchen.  It was a bit disorganized, very outdated, and there was a lot of wasted space where appliances and valuable cupboard space could be used.  Outdated electrical wiring and plumbing also meant that the apartment could not tolerate many modern conveniences like dishwashers, microwaves, entertainment centers and computers.

Rex, Dave and Ben (the Flo-Mar Maintenance team) began by removing the old cabinets and the old floor which was pink tile laid in a heavy concrete mud set.  Once the original wood floor beneath was revealed, they moved to the walls so that new wiring and plumbing could be put into place.  Finally, the wall between the kitchen and dinning room was removed to enlarge the space and make room for a breakfast bar.238 kit1.JPG (108201 bytes)
