Downstairs Half Bath - Before and After Demo

Here is what it looked like before the demo: I started the demo on my own, and managed to remove the tall cabinet, the door, the medicine cabinet, electrical covers, toilet paper holder, and some of the trim and wall tile/linoleum. I had a hammer, a screw driver, my power tool, and determination to work with. My boyfriend and brother did the next part of the demo on Saturday. They were able to remove the rest of the wall tile, the floor linoleum, the towel bars, and half of the two levels of plywood before they hit the original diagonal 3/4" subfloor.
