MORE ON THE GREEN ROOF…

Roofer Joe Ruffini, who’s building an environment-friendly ‘green’ roof atop his house on Maple Avenue, reports that he now has all the zoning approvals in hand to complete the job.

He writes:

I should be back to work on the project this week. Should have gutters going up Friday and finish railing next week. I got a table with fire pit built in today set it up on roof deck. Starting to look for large flower and planter pots.

Um, a FIRE PIT?

Ruffini assures us the pit was made for use on a deck, and that he plans to tile the area under and around it. He says he’ll have redbankgreen up for a marshmallow roast when it’s done.

Looking forward to it, Joe. But just in case, we might want to bring one of Kevin Boyce’s ladders. The long one. If it’s available, that is. As of early this afternoon, it was still tied to the roof of his Broad Street porch.
