Roxbury Project, Part 8 of 10
Host Kevin O'Connor arrives to find landscape contractor Roger Cook
on site with the landscape apprentices from YouthBuild Boston. The
group is helping to spread new soil in the front yard and also to
plant low-maintenance ground cover and an ornamental dogwood tree.
General contractor David Lopes shows master carpenter Norm Abram
the progress at the front entry and in the kitchen of the second
unit. Next door, countertop fabricator Danny Puccio shows homeowner
Lanita Tolentino how to clean and remove stains from her new marble
countertops. Nearby, plumbing and heating expert Richard Trethewey
meets Massachusetts state representative Byron Rushing to look more
closely at the historical aspects of Roxbury. Finally, Richard and
David Lopes install a new tankless hot water heater in the basement
of Lanita's unit.
