About Siouxland Framing & snow removal

Browne's Addition's narrow lots and turn-of-the-century frame houses sit close to the sidewalk, with barely room between the porch steps and the street for a plow blade to fit. Siouxland Framing works those walks by hand most mornings, shoveling where a truck simply won't go and salting the steps before anyone's out the door. The houses themselves were built board by board back when the neighborhood was new, and there's a certain fit between a framing crew and streets this exact and this tight. Snow piles up fast against those close-set porches, with nowhere wide to push it, so the crew carries it out to the curb in loads instead. By full daylight the walks along those old blocks are bare, steps salted, ready for whoever's heading downtown on foot.
