Full thickness real solid hardwood, finished in place is ideal, but expensive. I had it two houses ago.
Pre-finished engineered hardwood with a "micro-bevel" edge is a really good middle ground. Pay attention to the wear layer thickness and finish coating. Some bevel is a necessary evil in...
That's the least of it's visual failures. I can't imagine someone seeing the prototype with big fat white & skinny red stripes and approving it. Either make it actually look like a flag or make it obvious you weren't trying to represent a flag. Did nobody there even pass Graphic Design 101?

I suppose that all depends on what you park there. My F-150 with towing mirrors is only a few inches per side less than 9' and that left bay is really tight to the stairway wall.
Across the front I would do 3.5' wall, 10' door, 3.5 ' wall, 10' door, 5' wall. Dormers over the doors. If you need the 7' on the right, then 3' wall, 10' door, 2.5' wall, 10' door, 6.5 wall (same space as your 7' was with 6" less door per side)
Yes, they move a lot of air and are very quiet. They do have more than a few bad reviews for early death and poor customer service, but I am a risk taker...and lucky with things like this.
I have more research to do for those things. It's city water and haven't done the math on whether a well will be worth the cost, but yes I'll do irrigation later this summer and hydroseed in the fall. I'm 150 miles away and it will be easier to get quotes once I'm living there at the end of...
