Finished Master Bedroom and Master Bath

We have recently completed the master bedroom and master bathroom.  The master bath is in the exact location and size of the original in 1877.  The bathroom had been redone in the 30s and again in the 60s as evidenced by a copy of the front page of the Philadelphia Inquirer from 1960 discovered under the floorboards. 
 There must have been a cistern on the 3rd floor to supply water to this bathroom and the kitchen directly below.  The cistern was supported with 10x3s on 12 inch centers. Unfortunately, contractors had cut deeply into the 10x3s for the plumbing on both floors and they now needed sistering to adequately support the loads.  With wide lumber on narrow centers,  there was little room for the bolt and tool to drive it!
The bedroom ceiling was originally wallpapered.  None of it was in good condition,  The best pieces were in the closet.  We found a wallpaper that had a similar character, metallic flower petals on off-white paper.  There was no evidence of original fixtures but there were built-in corner sinks in each main bedroom.  These might not have had supply water, but we found remains of a lead pipe in the wall that probably served as a drain.  The bell cable on the wall in the master bedroom is fully functional, except no servants come anymore.
We discovered a gas pipe in the sidewall of the bathroom, so we put sconces on the wall as a tribute to the original lighting.  I assure you that the low flow Kohler toilet and dimmable overhead lights are far superior to the original single gas light and Mr Crapper's nearly original design.  We bought a sideboard at a local auction house to serve as a vanity and adapted a pair of vessel sinks to it. We wanted the room fully functional but in character with the original (still novel) idea of a furnished room with running water.

Here is what the bedroom looked like with the drop ceiling and debris removed.  Yes we bought the house with molding missing from the windows and exterior brick wall exposed under the plaster.

 With the plywood sub-floor pulled up, you can see the flexible tiles which were attached directly to the pine floor.  We guess that this work was probably done in the 1930s.
