Updated 3rd floor plans

The bulk of the work was done to streamline the bathroom and add a linen closet. We had goals before of leaving a sink-only room available to both bedrooms with a tub/toilet room walled off and behind a door. After the first round of drawings, the toilet seemed too cramped and I hate having to clean behind toilets in tight rooms. My last house had a little alcove where the toilet was, and my meaty hands couldn't get back there. Anyway, it looks really good.

Additional to that is a plan for stabilizing the price. The architect is suggesting that we nail down the schematics and start scouting for contractors. Also, we have a weird height restriction on the lot which, before we bought it, was meant to protect a future builder from encroaching on our view. Now that we're the encroacher and the encroachee, we're going to file papers with the city to rescind that document.

Here's the new 3rd floor. Note also that the master bedroom is a little smaller to accommodate the sink, but that's fine with me.
