When you watch TV or check out magazines about home improvement, it’s easy to think that everybody lives, works, and remodels in the suburbs–unless you’re watching the Urban Oasis or Home By Novogratz.

And I’ve remodeled my fair share of them, which is why when I approach a city job, I have to go through my Urban Remodeling Checklist—things to think about when lots sizes drop to 1/8 acre and less.
There are other tips, but these are top of mind when I go downtown.
