Did I hit a nerve there AKLOIG? Did I say you made the changes? After your last round of self-congratulatory emails with the current owner we all knew you didn't own the building anymore. I find it odd for you to go off on other people about "precious heritage." I think that building is a testame

What has been done to that building is a travesty. It's a prime example of why we should have a Historic District. On 6/8/07, [EMAIL PROTECTED] <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: After an inauspicious start at a porch enclosure in one of the area's oldest close-to-original-condition buildings (4323 Sp

Hey Biggy Anderson, Are you still fantasizing about throwing bricks at dogs? Do you ever act on these violent fantasies? Just curious. That was funny when the crowd told you to shut up when you started insulting the Director of the HMS School at that FOCP meeting. Remember, that was just b

Thanks for reminding me. They did kill a bunch of trees there. I think that is part of Paul Levy's CCD zone. It seems from what I have heard, Levy, is heavily involved with Penn. He was even bragging about encouraging John Fry to tax renters and long term residents.By his own account this c

Another set of wholesome trees was removed from the hood from the HMS school at 46th & Baltimore. Maybe it's a consequence of receiving a million dollar grant, or something else. Whatever the case, it looks terrible. I'm just having a tough time understanding why it was done; but hey, it isn

They had a sign up a while ago indicating they were about to start building something, which I guess is what they're up to. I saw Fran Byers watching some of it from her front porch with her camera. Maybe she knows. On 7/7/07, John Ellingsworth <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Another set of wholesom

Hi all, I have a three-story row house and am pricing out central air conditioning systems. Fortunately I have a forced-air heating system, so I won't need extensive duct work to be done. I was wondering: 1) does anyone have recommendations re: installation companies, and 2) how much value d

Cappy: Not all forced-air heating systems have ductwork that will work efficiently for central air. It depends on factors such as duct size and location, insulation of the ductwork (if any), number and location of returns, etc. With a large house, you may need more than one compressor/blower
