[Highland Park] Bathroom Renovation Help
by Kelly Weinheimer 23 Sep '07

23 Sep '07

Hi Neighbors - First and foremost - thank you for all of your kind words in light of our recent misfortune. It's a nice reminder of why we moved to Highland Park in the first place! I hope you can help us again. We need a *professional* to do the following in our bathroom: 1. Tile and grout our bath/shower; 2. Install a bathtub and fixtures; 3. Remove and replace one small wall; 4. Install cork flooring. We have already purchased the supplies or know exactly what we want. We are looking for someone who is reliable, affordable, and efficient (it's our only full bathroom so we can't make this a several week project). Does this person exist? I will trust your recommendations. Thank you, Kelly Weinheimer/Christopher Conard Callowhill Street

[Highland Park] Re: Burglary on Callowhill
by B. Price 21 Sep '07

21 Sep '07

I live on Callowhill too. On a Tuesday a couple of weeks ago, I was leaving for work around noon and two men I had never seen before were standing in front of my secure building. They were looking around, and maybe I'm paranoid, but I thought I heard them discussing how they could get inside. As I left (and shut the locking door behind me) , they came up on the porch and stared into the apartment of the a girl who lives there, who never shuts her window or her curtains. Situations like this are awkward, because when you don't know everyone who lives in your building, you don't want to call police on random neighbors. But there was an SUV I hadn't seen before parked out front, and I know I haven't seen these particular men before or since. The whole situation felt weird, so I ended up calling 911 as I was leaving. I work long hours and never see my neighbors, so I don't know what happened. But, I wonder if this could be related?

[Highland Park] Burglary on Callowhill
by Kelly Weinheimer 20 Sep '07

20 Sep '07

Hello Neighbors! Our house on Callowhill was broken into yesterday (we were at work all day and no one saw anything, so it's difficult to pin down the time). They used wood from a neighbor's construction work to climb up to our second floor and get in through an open window. Most of the items they took can be replaced (laptop, stereos, xbox, camera, ipod, dvd's, etc.), but they also stole several pieces of heirloom jewelry, and my boyfriend's passport and social security card. The police and crime investigators were very helpful, but it is still important to keep your eyes open and windows locked, even if you think the windows are not easily accessible!!! And, of course, if you see anyone running around the neighborhood with pillowcases full of stereo equipment (yes, they took a few pillowcases to make off with their haul), feel free to call the police and email me :) Thank you! Kelly Weinheimer/Christopher Conard Callowhill St.

Ugh! It scares me to hear that this occurred during the day. I really hope your valuables are recovered and the thieves are apprehended. I'd like to pass along to everyone things that I've noticed while driving thru our neighbourhood. Surely burglars notice these things too as they plan for their next victim: Homes in the evening that are completely dark Homes in the evening that are completely dark and windows are left open Ladders left outside (which can be used to gain access to your or your neighbour's home) Mail overflowing in mailboxes To me, little things like these just seem to say "pick me!" to a burglar. (Especially if other homes around appear to be occupied at the time.) In a message dated 9/20/2007 9:20:56 A.M. Eastern Daylight Time, kelvicious(a)gmail.com writes: Hello Neighbors!
