Nick sweats and kicks dust around in the next video in our series documenting the fall and rise of the Bywater building that we’ve spent that past year transforming into your new favorite bar and street food restaurant, Booty’s.
Real talk, there’s some mumbling and sweeping going on here, but our brains were pretty fried from the August summer sun this week. All of the Bywater cool kids were out of town on summer vacation, and there were days that it seemed like Nick was talking a little bit too much to some of those barge board pieces we were excavating from the walls, like they were Wilson in Cast Away.
This period was definitely a low point in the construction process. It was hot. It was humid. And there were so many critical structural tasks being completed each day that just weren’t highly visible enough to make us feel like we were progressing at all.
But little by little, we were getting there – come hell or Bywater.
