Happy New Year! We hope your holidays were safe and Covid-free. It seems like everyone everywhere has been affected by Covid in one way or another. Despite the pandemic, we at DMA continue to stay busy and have worked on some very interesting projects and have met some great clients on the way.

Otter Way was published in Maine Homes by Downeast, and we spent a glorious day with the clients of Round Pond Crossing, albeit a year late. It took a while, but we did get to photograph the Livable Little House, and will come back to the Georgetown Cape when the landscaping begins to grow. Navis Cafe opened during a pandemic, but it remains successful because the food is so good. Lastly, we have a host of current projects under construction that we continue to monitor.

Here's to a better 2022. Cheers!

Walls and roofs have been framed and the WRB (weather resistance barrier) is being installed at Headline. The openings have been protected with plastic as we await windows. The space and light feels great. Construction by Thorner Building Corp.

Two of the three structures have been framed at the Kennebec Terrace in Bath. Overlooking the Kennebec River, and starting from the upper slope, a bridge will take you to all three structures. Construction by Chartier Building and Remodeling.

We love client photos! This was sent recently when the clients moved into their cottage, the Maine Branch, and sent some wonderful dusk photos. The contractor went out of his way to make the cottage livable despite missing a few items. Construction by Chartier Building & Remodeling.

The foundation footings and walls have been formed and poured at Cold Spring Farm Road. There's been a little delay as the contractor deals with some unexpected interior issues at the main house, but it will make for an even better project in the end. Construction by Chartier Building and Remodeling.
