1317 Bathroom Remodel: Close in Inspection

We passed our close-in inspection on Wednesday, and the walls are ready for drywall.

Here's a photo with my son for scale.  I bet the bathroom looks really big from 3 feet off the ground.

I really love the old plaster and the back side of the lathe.

The mounting brackets for the wall-hung sink ended up in the perfectly wrong location.  So, after much consideration, I made a 1/2" thick plywood plate that will be mounted to the studs in place of the drywall. Then I installed a heavy gauge metal plate plate to the back to protect the vent stack.

Downstairs in the hall, we are are installing an acoustic ceiling because PVC is really noisy.  The track is attached to the joists, then the drywall is attached to the track. 
In between the joists we're installing mineral wool sound insulation. 

Next up: Drywall!
