At this point most of the demo work has been completed and the electrical work was just about to be finished. This is the current state of the apartment. We had to remove a lot of the wall to run all new electrical wires. The wiring before had no grounding and was the old "Knob and Tube" system. This system was no longer being installed in homes after 1930, so that gives you some idea of how old the wiring is. As you can see from wikipedia, this type of wiring is found in museums today. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Knob_and_tube_wiring
