Our neighbor is working on his house again ...covering the walls with plaster, adding the balcony railings and tiles on the roof - all sorts of stuff. Previously Indy had her own verion of kitty-TV since a lot of birds had built nests on the top floor ... protected from the wind and rain, yet all the windows-to-be provided easy access to the outside. Don't know how soon the top floor will be closed in ...still lots of work to do on the place...it may be a while .... traditionally Sicilians would build or improve their homes only as they saved up the money to do so ...
...looking in a window-to-be to the inside of the room...
...under the window-to-be, you can see sunlight coming through the cracks around the brick...later that day, plaster had been put on both sides of this wall ....nope, no insulation whatsoever ...
...homes here can be pretty, but the inside temperatures vary along with the outside temperatures ...

Hi, Holly Berry.
Enjoyig having a browse around your Blog.
There are many unfinished houses, in our region of Italy also. Not finished for the same reasons you mention plus we found out, a few years ago now there was a change in planning regulations and a lot of new houses were started to beat these!
