Lucinda (Lucy) O'Neill is managing editor of The Old House Web. An editor since 2000 and a do-it-herselfer since birth, Lucy enjoys a good challenge almost as much as a good Pinot. She and her husband recently moved, swapping a late 19th century Victorian in San Francisco's Liberty Hill Historic District for an early 20th century brick factory building loft apartment in Brooklyn, New York.
