In December I used a car service to the airport, a fellow living in Morningside who drives a yellow taxi. I've lost his name and number. Anyone have it, or have another suggestion? Irina

[Highland Park] a bridge too far?
by Helen Blier 06 Mar '13

06 Mar '13

Hi, neighbors - Well, the latest installment in neighborhood traffic inconveniences has hit our streets - so glad that a rickety bridge will be replaced, so bummed about the inevitable gum-ups and rerouting. I wanted to give a shout-out to one of the businesses that will be greatly affected by the S Highland bridge closure - Smiley's Pet Pad. Ginny Smiley runs one of the friendliest and most useful neighborhood boutiques ever. She knows her customers and she'll bend over backwards to get you what you need. One recent convo as I walked in: "Hey, Ginny!" "Hey, Helen; how are you? Here to order the usual?" "Yup - when will it be in?" "Delivery on Thursday. By the way, how are the dog and gerbils?" Translation: food for my immortal cockatiels, special ordered. And - get this - $4 cheaper than the big box retailier! (Plus, she knows about the rest of my menagerie, but that's another story.) Ginny took a hit when the big box pet store opened in the former Borders building. She's expecting that this bridge closure will make things rough as well. I'd like the HP community - whether you're a regular Smiley's customer or have yet to set foot in this wonderful little fixture - to make the extra effort and ensure that the shop stays afloat. (She also has a version of a "pet perks" card that accumulates rebates as you make purchases - which makes her an even better deal than the big box.) And for those of you who don't know where this gem is, it's in the plaza just over the bridge, next to Parma Pizza and Tasty Chinese Restaurant - 215 S. Highland 412 362 7556 Thanks, neighbors! Helen (and the rest of the zoo) p.s. If you think I'm biased, they *did* get the "Best in the 'Burgh" award and top reviews from other folks: http://pittsburgh.citysearch.com/profile/8625523/pittsburgh_pa/smiley_s_pet…
