[Highland Park] Housing wanted for 3 grad students
by William Reier 24 Jun '10

24 Jun '10

Dear Highland Park Landlords/Property Owners, My two roommates and I, all graduate students at Pitt, are looking for a 3-bedroom apartment or house in the Highland Park area. Two of us used to live in the neighborhood and we're interested in returning. We will be here for another 2 years or more while we finish our programs and would love to find a safe and clean place to call home. We are responsible and respectful tenants and we have always taken care of the properties where we've lived. We have one small, clean, and well-trained cat whose owner would, of course, be willing to pay reasonable pet fees. Ideally, we would like to find a place with a washer and dryer and some outdoor space. Our current leases expire July 31st, so we are looking for July 15th to August 1st availability. We have been looking at apartment listings for a while to no avail. Please let us know if you have any properties available that would suit our needs. Thank you! Bill Reier bill.reier(a)gmail.com 570-713-8831

[Highland Park] free plant pots - plastic/ push mower - Lee Valley $40 with sharpening kit
by Joan Soulliere 24 Jun '10

24 Jun '10

Dear Neighbors, We have cleaned the garage. I have a LOT of plastic pots - mostly smaller and leftover from plants bought at nurseries this summer. There are a few large (gallon and 1/2 gallon). If anyone is interested, they're free for the taking. Please let me know and I'll put them out for you. I also have a Lee Valley push mower with sharpening kit for sale: $40. The rubber hand grip is a bit torn, and that's the only damage. It is 3 yrs. old and recently sharpened. Please email me if you are interested. Joan Soulliere Farragut St.

[Highland Park] tree removal service recommendation?
by Mary Louise Ray 23 Jun '10

23 Jun '10

We just had a very large tree branch fall. Can anyone recommend a company to remove the branch? We are particularly interested in companies that are punctual and show up when they say they will, because we are anxious to see the state of our car, which is currently buried under said tree branch. Thanks. --mlr
