The bath's taking shape, and just in time - plumbers start tomorrow. They'll be replacing all the pipes that supply water to our house from the street. The rusty cast iron pipes that bring water from the meter to the back of the house are also being replaced. They'll move the laundry to the first floor, move the kitchen sink and fridge water supply, and rough-in the new bathroom. Bill finished the framing work upstairs in preparation.
New water closet is on back left - this side of the wall is also where the showerhead will be. The near left in this picture shows the bench at the back of the shower. The vanity will be placed where the chair and box fan are located:

Many thanks to Patty and Steve for helping us flip this 350 lb tub. When it arrived Wednesday, we had movers get it upstairs and flip it so we could install the feet. I'm pretty sure Bill and I couldn't have gotten it upright without help, though it went pretty easily with all four of us. Thanks, guys!
