Saturday Night/Sunday Morning Door Knocking
by Shannon Anglero 28 Mar '16

28 Mar '16

About 12:30am on Sun, Mar 27 someone was on our porch, at our front door and our dogs were barking very aggressively. At first I thought they were overreacting to something (not someone on our porch) and said a quick, "Hey!". And then the person on the other side of the door said "Hey" back. (Weird, right.) He eventually left after a few moments of trying to knock on the door. Never pounded or tried to open the door. We called 911 (telling them it wasn't an emergency, just an FYI) and the operator told us that the cops picked someone up on Hampton Street who was knocking on doors looking for a ride. Quite likely the same guy. Just an FYI for the neighborhood. -- ------- Shannon Marie Anglero

Parking Lot Request
by Michael M. Nadler 28 Mar '16

28 Mar '16

Neighbors, We're reaching out to our HP neighbors on behalf of our nephew who is a sophomore at Pitt Engineering. He's one of the lead engineers for the Panther Racing Team, a Student Formula Race Team (FSAE). Each year they design and build a Formula-style race car to compete against other teams from around the world. We're asking if anyone has access to a large parking lot where the team could practice racing their car before they compete mid-May in Michigan. They are looking for afternoon/evenings and Weekends, so hopefully not interfering with work schedules at proposed parking lot. They're fully insured and can provide the appropriate paperwork. It's not a loud vehicle (it has to pass a noise test), they can work off hours, and most of all these are hard-working, engineering students (no parties going on)! Thank you for your time, Mike & Brigette Nadler Michael & Brigette Nadler 5916 Callowhill Street Pittsburgh, PA 15206 (412) 363-DIVE (3483), Fax: (412) 363-2925, e-mail: mike(a)divehards.com<mailto:mike@divehards.com> [cid:image003.jpg@01D188E8.1F3D5B40] Follow us on Facebook at Divehards International

found keys
by Sherry Goldman 28 Mar '16

28 Mar '16

Yesterday, up at the reservoir, someone told me they had found some keys and put them on the bench. The bench was on the side facing the entry gardens, (to the right of the steps if you are looking at the gardens) and directly across from that little street halfway up Bunkerhill (see picture).

Hauling Recommendations - Flooded Basement
by around theworld 28 Mar '16

28 Mar '16

Pipe burst and basement was partially flooded. Need to remove many wet items from basement, including spare mattresses and other furniture. Carpet can't be saved and will need to be pulled up and removed. Does anyone have any recommendations for a company that does this? Did a quick search and only came up with Servpro, but if anyone has had a good experience with this company, please let me know. Thanks

On Sunday night (last night) I was walking my dog at around 10 pm when somone in a truck stopped and asked me if I had lost 2 dogs. He said they were a german shepherd and a pit-bull-type and the location was near Highland and Jackson. I drove around the block but did not see them. I hope this alerts the owner. --
