[Highland Park] Vandalism
by Geoffrey Hitch 29 Oct '07

29 Oct '07

Dear Highland Park Neighbors, This past Monday between 5pm & 7pm in the 1100 block of Portland Street, someone vandalized a small tree that my wife and I had planted between the front walk and the street. Somebody decided to rip down a major branch of the tree and to leave it in the center of our front walkway. It amounted to about a third of the entire tree, since the tree is only about 5 years old. We can only hope that the tree will survive the upcoming winter. And a month ago, the same happened to some of our sunflowers. What can be done to stop people who walk randomly down our streets from amusing themselves by destroying property that does not belong to them? Geoffrey

[Highland Park] Re: Sitters
by Jeffrey Saver 29 Oct '07

29 Oct '07

To whom it may concern: I am a new resident in Highland Park, and am seeking a part-time sitter for my two young daughters. I usually need someone on weekdays in the afternoons when they get off of school (they go to Sacred Heart in Shady Side) until early evening. The children speak both english & spanish, so a spanish speaking person is a plus, though not at all essential. Tutoring a BIG plus. If interested, please call Jeff either at: (412) 661-8389 home or (917) 558-6964 mobile

[Highland Park] Halloween
by Chet and Alberta 28 Oct '07

28 Oct '07

We want to thank everyone that responded to our email concerning our Halloween display. The bones are healing and so is our spirit, thanks to the many emails and support from the people of Highland Park. We have been informed by Senator Ferlo that garbage man that assaulted us is no longer a city employee. We would also like to say that this was an isolated incident and in no way should this be held against any of the other fine garbage men that do a great job for the community. Thanks again, Chet and Alberta

[Highland Park] New neighbour, Mr. John.
by Pannny＠aol.com 26 Oct '07

26 Oct '07

Today, on Stanton Avenue next to the Community Gardens, a Mr. Port O. John moved in. I phoned the telephone number that's on Mr. John's house, but only received a recording to call back on Monday. While it's sitting on city/park property, I don't appreciate looking at it from my front windows (it's doesn't blend in with the fall foliage...) and it surely doesn't seem there's a need for it there. All the homes here have indoor plumbing. Also, given the vandalism of the "johns" in the park and the most recent vandalism of dozens of car windows on this street, the last thing we need is to see our new neighbour "Mr. John" on it's side. Does anyone know who within the city I should contact to find out why in the world Mr. John now resides in our neighbourhood? Thanks, neighbours ;) ************************************** See what's new at http://www.aol.com
