Emerson, 1991

The Emerson Row House is a Greenleaf kit that is currently not in production.  This kit has an issue with the lower floor in that the ceiling height is very low.  In a one-inch scale setting only miniature people who were 2 feet tall would be comfortable.  Upon finishing this house, I tried putting a child's bedroom in this space, but still found this unsatisfactory.  So I removed the base and added a 2 1/5 inch board to the wall in order to increase the ceiling height.  I then turned the lower floor into a soda shop.

Note the low ceiling height in lower floor.  This picture was taken before the extension was added to the bottom section of the house.
