Reading Nook in Progress

Got the drywall pulled off, and had the code inspector come out and review my plans.  Here is the existing framing.
Still full of all the junk.  Below I've gotten the main framing done.
Had to put some joist hangers on the floor joists per the code inspectors requirements.  Decided to go ahead and overbuild it and added a 2x10 support header over the opening to provide extra support for that span.  Next I need to plan out the wiring and build some of the bookshelves.  I'll have to put drywall under the stairs for code fire barrier, but I'll put a fascia over it, as I don't want the look of drywall in there.

Harry Potter Hole

Harry Potter Hole, as my friends started calling it, has had its internal trim installed, and I've put paint on the shelving below it.  This will look good once the flooring is installed.
