From the Forum: Staying Put or Moving During Construction

A homeowner is contemplating an addition to their brownstone and wondering if it is realistic to live on site during the work. They would be able to live in the garden unit while an extra floor is added, but would they regret having to deal with the dust and noise? What have others done?

Please chime in with your advice.
