East Boston Project (Part 16)
In the first half of The "This Old House Hour", host Kevin O'Connor visits Suffolk Downs – the oldest horseracing track in Massachusetts. Landscape architect Stephanie Hubbard fills Kevin in on some changes to the landscape plan, as the decorative trellises go up against the neighbor's garage. Homeowner Chris Flynn lends painting contractor Buzz Zimmerman a hand painting the walls in her kitchen, as master carpenter Norm Abram builds her a custom banquette at the New Yankee Workshop. Plumbing and heating expert Richard Trethewey shows Kevin the new PEX water supply lines, the automatic water shutoff in the third-floor laundry, and the custom radiator covers going in on the first floor. In the second half of the Hour, landscape contractor Roger Cook heads to Denver to help a pair of homeowners remove an overgrown juniper bush. Up in the Ask This Old House loft, Kevin and general contractor Tom Silva demonstrate the proper way to coil extension cords. Then, Richard helps a homeowner replace a pop-up drain assembly on the pedestal sink in his bathroom.
