Yesterday was demo day at 3613 Goodhope St. in South Union. Extreme Makeover: Home Edition host Ty Pennington (or his designated photo-Tweeter) sent out this pic Monday, showing the final moments of the Johnson family’s 700-sq.-ft. 1945 bungalow. What’s going on today at the Houston build?
HHN Homes manager Linda Stewart tells Swamplot last night’s rain set back the schedule. The slab for the new 4,500-sq.-ft. home is now on track to be poured at 3 pm today. Pre-assembled wall panels should be “ready to set” 50 minutes later, she says. Intrepid (and now hard-hatted) Swamplot photographer Candace Garcia files these photos from the scene:

50 minutes later?
They’re probably using that special BP cement.
Snore.
So what is the deal? are they going to build the house in under a week to surprise the family? …… just curious.
So they demolished a bungalow to build a two story house? Someone better call the MAYOR, ASAP!
Lets make that neighborhood an historic district so that this assault on history can never happen again!!
They say they want help but they are turning help away…Why
I went and tried to help and tried to ride the bus to go see the home after being turned away for volunteering and then was told to get off the bus it was for volunteers ONLY….What a Joke.
