[Highland Park] Custom Metal Work
by Alfred Mann 12 Apr '10

12 Apr '10

One of the nice things about Highland Park is this listserv, which informs local residents of services available. A notice posted in February described the custom metal work offered by London Pattern Metalworks, owned by Highland Park resident Colin Carrier. We just had Colin fabricate and install two beautiful outdoor handrails at our home. We highly recommend his work. He can be reached at 412-996-8555. Al and Genevieve Mann

[Highland Park] Spring clean your medicine cabinet
by Amy P. Kennedy 12 Apr '10

12 Apr '10

Hi Neighbors, Allegheny County's first ever pharmaceutical hazardous waste collection is being held on May 15th. It's a good opportunity to get rid of those unused/expired prescription and over-the-counter medications cluttering up your cabinets and keep them out of our water supply. This could be an especially valuable service to perform for your elderly relatives who may be prone to confusion resulting in overmedication. The collection is being held in Hampton Township--a little bit of a trek from our neighborhood. I'm a pharmacist and I'll be volunteering at the event. If anyone has any medications they would like taken for disposal, send me an email. I'll make myself available for collection here in the neighborhood a few days prior to the event. There is a $3 disposal fee per household. Details and informational link below. Thanks! Amy Saturday, May 15, 2010 – 9:00 am – 1:00 pm Hampton Township Community Center 3101 McCully Rd. Allison Park, PA 15101 http://www.swpahhw.org/Pharmaceutical.html

[Highland Park] household items for sale
by Ariana Mangual 12 Apr '10

12 Apr '10

Dear Neighbors, Thank you for your interest in the furniture that I posted last week; it has all sold. I now have the following household items for sale. I've listed prices, but am inviting all reasonable offers. Pictures are attached. All best, Ariana - Kodak Easy Share M1020 Digital Photo Frame. It measures 10" and stores up to 1,000 photos. It comes with the home decor kit. I got it as a gift and I've never used it. It has never been opened. $100 - Ott Lite floor lamp. I bought it last summer for $129 but I only used it for a few months until I got a different lamp. It uses an OTT-Lite bulb that's supposed to be good for reading. See link for the item description: http://www.ottlite.com/p-83-dakota-floor-lamp-antiqued-bronze-reg-12999-sal… $50 - Zenith and LG Dehumidifiers. I got them at Home Depot and use them in the basement. They work great. They both have a 10" (or longer) hose attached. Hoses included in the sale. $80 each - Scotts 16 In. Elite Push Reel Mower. I bought it at Home Depot for $90 and only used it once. $60 - About a year ago I thought I might learn to sew, so I bought this very cool antique Singer Sewing Machine from Thornton and Company in Monroeville. They serviced the machine and taught me how to do a couple of things, but I never really took it up. It comes with a copy of the original instruction manual, needles, other accessories, and a spool of thread. $50 - Space heater. I used it during two winters and it does a great job of heating up both small and large rooms. The model is: Sunbeam SLP3310-UM Low-Profile 1000/1500-Watt Convection Heater. $25 - 2004 Magnavox TV and 2003 Hitachi DVD player. They each come with their remote controls. They work perfectly. $50 for both

[Highland Park] Free: Lift Chair, Cyclone Fence
by james weinheimer 12 Apr '10

12 Apr '10

The previous owners of our home left an electric lift chair when the house was sold. The upholstery needs to be cleaned but it is in otherwise fine shape. I tested it and it does work with power assist to both lift and recline. The power assist requires electricity from a 110V receptacle. The chair is similar to a La-z-boy reclining chair. Also available is about 25 feet of cyclone fence and supports. There is some rust at the bottom of the chain link but it is not rotting through. If you would like to pick up either of these items, they are yours. Thank you Jim Weinheimer 1195 Chislett St
