[Highland Park] Contractor recommendations?
by Neepa Majumdar 08 Jun '10

08 Jun '10

Dear Neighbors: Can anyone recommend a contractor for both interior and exterior work for snow and water-related damage? This is for damaged walls and ceiling (inside) and a rotting beam (outside). There's also some minor siding repair. I know that contractor recommendations have been posted from time to time (and I have saved them), but I was looking for more recent suggestions based on personal experience. Thanks, Neepa Majumdar

by Annie Morrison 08 Jun '10

08 Jun '10

On Monday, June 7, my cat, Yves ("Eves") went missing. Yves is entirely black, with short hair, a normal length tail, and yellow eyes. He is a medium sized cat, weighing about 12 - 15 pounds. Unfortunately, he is not wearing a collar. Yves is vaccinated and neutered. He is a shy indoor cat. If you have any information, or if you think you may have seen him in or near the intersection of Stanton and Negley, please let me know. I can be reached at a.morrison(a)modcloth.com. Thank you so much.

*Union Project is celebrating our stained glass this weekend. Come join us for one or both of these fun events! * *Light UP THIS FRIDAY* (Check out the article <http://blogs.sites.post-gazette.com/index.php/news/city-walkabout>written by Diana Nelson Jones of the Post-Gazette) On Friday, June11th from 6:30pm - 9:30pm Union Project will be celebrating the completion and installation of our choir loft windows with tours, food, lawn games, music, and the first nighttime lighting of the beautiful windows. After a near three year hiatus, Union Project’s stained glass restoration classes and workshops are back, now in partnership with Prism Stained Glass and the Pittsburgh Glass Center. From an unheated, partially roofless atrium seven years ago, to a warm and friendly downstairs studio, Union Project’s Glass Action Program has taught more than 200 community members the art of stained glass restoration. The restoration of the choir loft windows is part of the final phase of a project, which also includes restoring the entire wall of windows in the Great Hall (former sanctuary) on the northern section of the building. Thanks to a generous grant from the Laurel Foundation and a matching grant from Pennsylvania Historical and Museum Commission the project’s anticipated completion date is February 2011. But, now we need *your *help. For more information on this project or to register for summer and fall classes/workshops to help Union Project complete our project contact Arts Liaison, Jenna Vanden Brink at jenna(a)unionproject.org or call 412-363-4550 x 22.
