[Highland Park] Stone Repair Work Needed
by LMChesek＠aol.com 09 Apr '08

09 Apr '08

Any recommendations regarding someone who can repair our stone front porch steps? The stone is veneered over concrete and winter weather has taken its toll: several areas have come loose and need to be relayed, and I suspect the whole thing sealed. Thanks!

[Highland Park] suspicious solicitation
by courtney ehrlichman 07 Apr '08

07 Apr '08

Neighors, Strange thing happened yesterday. I was home on Mellon Street with my 5 day old daughter up in my bedroom in the early afternoon. Thank goodness for my home alarm system, because it suddenly alerted me that the front door was open. My partner ran down the stairs to find a tall black man claiming to have just returned from harrisburg and looking for work. Now, our front porch is under construction, but in no way does this permiss someone to giddyup and open our front door. My partner had to ask the man to step out of the vestibule and onto the porch where he repeatedly told him he had no work for the stranger. The stranger was rather insistent until my mother walked down with a phone in her hand so he left. Nerve racking to say the least.
