San Carlos Elms Construction getting close to the end?

Here is a closer view of the room, the cabinets, refrigerator, freezer and counter tops. Looking good.

New granite tops to all the counters in the new lounge. So excited, can't wait to open for activities.

The far wall you can see the new granite top and off to the left you can see two of the chairs we were debating on. One did win can you guess?
