[Highland Park] Hit and run on Glenview Place
by leah horst 06 Dec '09

06 Dec '09

Hi all, Sometime last night, our car was hit as it was parked in front of our home on Glenview Place (between Jackson and Stanton, off of Heberton). It appears that someone in a black (and/or maybe gold) truck or SUV (judging by the height of the damage) ran into our car at the point of the front passenger tire. Rather than backing up, they continued to drive down the length of our car, detaching their own mighty chariot only after arriving at the back passenger tire. So now our vehicle has a huge gouge running the length of the car, and it is deep enough that we are unable to open the passenger doors. If you heard or saw anything suspicious last night on Glenview Place, if you notice a vehicle with front bumper damage that is also conspicuously sporting remnants of white paint, or if you are responsible and meant to come back with a note after grabbing pen and paper from home but somehow got distracted from that noble task, we would appreciate any information that you can provide. Your neighbors, Leah and Rabih Helou

[Highland Park] Needed: Pinecones!
by caitlin 04 Dec '09

Hi there! Does anyone have a tree that has produced and dropped a large number of medium or larger sized pine cones? If you would like some of them removed from your yard I would be glad to come fill up a couple bags with them. They are needed for an elementary school project. Thanks so much!

[Highland Park] Free firewood
by Maureen Copeland 04 Dec '09

04 Dec '09

Hi Neighbors, Some black locust trees came down, and were unfortunately left on a site that I¹m helping to manage. I don¹t have a chipper or equipment to easily take care of the trees, so I¹m hoping there¹s someone out there that might want some firewood? The location Broad and N St Clair Street in Garland Park, near the Pennley Place Apartments (between Negley and Penn Circle near the fire station) - if you email or call my cell I can give you a more exact location. The trees are pretty long, so a saw would be ideal, as would a truck. According to a tree expert, these trees burn well once they¹re seasoned, and make excellent fence posts... Hope that someone can use them! Mo -- Maureen Copeland Community Programs Manager GTECH Strategies m.copeland(a)gtechstrategies.org www.gtechstrategies.org 412.241.1013 x3 412.334.2072 (cell)

[Highland Park] Piano Free to a Good Home
by Teri Rucker 04 Dec '09

04 Dec '09

The previous owners left a piano in our house. It is in dire need of tuning and a couple of the keys stick a bit, but otherwise is in good shape. Ideally, we would like to donate it to a school or other organization that could use a piano, but since it needs work that might not be a very nice donation. So it is free to the first person who can get it out of our house without scratching our newly refinished wooden floors. Please e-mail me if you are interested. Teri
