    <title>The Macalla</title>
<content type="html">
            &lt;h3&gt;Currently Under Construction &amp;mdash; The Macalla located West of Trail at 1815 Wisteria Street, Sarasota, Florida.&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The Macalla &#8211; John Cannon Homes newest home under construction at the corner of Wisteria St. and Osprey Ave. With its Spanish Revival architecture and walled courtyard, The Macalla at 3,300 sq. ft. will be the most envied home West of the Trail. Located at 1815 Wisteria St., this home will feature 3 bedrooms, 3 baths, family room, game room, gourmet kitchen, study, upper level game room and spectacular outdoor living area with summer kitchen, pool and spa and 2 car garage. &lt;br /&gt;Expected completion date is Late Spring 2012 and is offered at $1,049,900 &#8211; fully furnished! If you would like more information on The Macalla, please call Mark Grigoli, Director of Sales and Marketing at 941.361.1300.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;table&gt;

&lt;tr&gt;
&lt;td&gt;&lt;/td&gt;
&lt;td&gt;We&#8217;ve cleared the lot and removed the unwanted vegetation. We have also set the foundation with &#8220;batter boards&#8221;, and the footing has been dug with reinforced steel placed. In this image you can see the stemwall has been set. The top course is made up of chair block. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/td&gt;
&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;tr&gt;
&lt;td&gt;&lt;/td&gt;
&lt;td&gt;In this image you can see the stemwall laid on the footer. Once the stemwall cells are filled with concrete, the underground plumbing is installed. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/td&gt;
&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;tr&gt;
&lt;td&gt;&lt;/td&gt;
&lt;td&gt;The installation of the underground plumbing is now in process and once completed will be ready for inspection. The tall &lt;span class=&quot;caps&quot;&gt;PVC&lt;/span&gt; pipes at the top of the image are the vents for the waste lines. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/td&gt;
&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;tr&gt;
&lt;td&gt;&lt;/td&gt;
&lt;td&gt;After passing the first plumbing inspection, the trenches are back-filled with dirt. Once compacted, the slab area is covered with a vapor barrier to prevent water from condensing on the concrete slab&lt;/td&gt;
&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;tr&gt;
&lt;td&gt;&lt;/td&gt;
&lt;td&gt;In these two images you see the progress the block masons have made in setting the block.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/td&gt;
&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;tr&gt;
&lt;td&gt;&lt;/td&gt;
&lt;td&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/td&gt;
&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;tr&gt;
&lt;td&gt;&lt;/td&gt;
&lt;td&gt;In these few images, you can see the construction progress on the second floor of The Macalla. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/td&gt;
&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;tr&gt;
&lt;td&gt;&lt;/td&gt;
&lt;td&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/td&gt;
&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;tr&gt;
&lt;td&gt;&lt;/td&gt;
&lt;td&gt;Inside framing and insulation continues as shown in the following images. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/td&gt;
&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;tr&gt;
&lt;td&gt;&lt;/td&gt;
&lt;td&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/td&gt;
&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;tr&gt;
&lt;td&gt;&lt;/td&gt;
&lt;td&gt;
&lt;p&gt;During this phase of construction, plywood sheathing has been applied to the trusses, and when completed, the roof will then be covered with self-sealing adhesive membrane.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/td&gt;
&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;tr&gt;
&lt;td&gt;&lt;/td&gt;
&lt;td&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/td&gt;
&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;tr&gt;
&lt;td&gt;&lt;/td&gt;
&lt;td&gt;In these images you can see that framing at the interior of the home continues. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/td&gt;
&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;tr&gt;
&lt;td&gt;&lt;/td&gt;
&lt;td&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/td&gt;
&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;tr&gt;
&lt;td&gt;&lt;/td&gt;
&lt;td&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/td&gt;
&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;tr&gt;
&lt;td&gt;&lt;/td&gt;
&lt;td&gt;While the interior framing continues, the heating ventilation/air conditioning system rough will be completed in conjunction with supplies and returns. The ducts are installed along with the outlets so drywall can be hung around them. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/td&gt;
&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;tr&gt;
&lt;td&gt;&lt;/td&gt;
&lt;td&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/td&gt;
&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;tr&gt;
&lt;td&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/td&gt;
&lt;td&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/td&gt;
&lt;/tr&gt;
