Framing entry, attic and details

We finally added the new entry door and walled it up. We also have the new entry closet added in as well as the ceiling joists finished. The foyer is pretty much done, and we also had to add pieces of 1" or 7/8" on top of the existing studs for the interior walls. We learned since most of the walls had lathe & plaster, plus being old 2x4s, they don't match the width of new 2x4s, so we had to even the wall out.
We also added new roof supports to replace the older, rickety ones.

We are also debating what to do about HVAC. Learned that we'll need to have it back in place for the inspections - we had an inspection of the concrete pads the other day. Will need to go out and get some quotes for the HVAC.
