[UC] Date of PHC's Architectural Committee meeting -- correction

I unintentionally inserted some ambiguity into my posting about the Historical Commission's Architectural Committee meeting with the plans for a 10-story hotel at 40th & Pine. Here's the official announcement. This is a good opportunity to help move this lovely addition to our neighborho

[UC] Malcolm X Park cleanup on Saturday 9am-noon

If you don't already have plans for tomorrow morning, there'll be a clean-up in Malcolm X Park from 9am to Noon. Aside from corralling the litter and the first flush of leaves, we'll also be removing the cages from some of the newer trees in the park, so any tree-tenders would be especially welco

Re: [UC] Stop the hotel and SHCA - taking ownership

is historical character (and our neighborhood) to be thrown out like yesterday's newspaper when the front men for big instititutions want to make devestating changes to the entire neighborhood? "The downtown is really becoming Front Street to 40th Street ..." Facilities spokesman Tony Sorrenti

Good Morning Does anyone on the listserv have a recommendation for a contractor to repair a portion of an old plaster ceiling which fell down. The damage is approx 4' x 3' and would like to use dry wall to patch it Thanks John Valentino **
