Yeah I have like a half basement (because of a hill my basement exits on one side to the ground level), and I do run a dehumidifier pretty much all summer, but I've never had an issue with water down there in ~7 years

It is the blocked where the apartments by McCandless might soon be, afaik nothing's confirmed there. Either way, the fence has been blocking the street for at least ~7 years and it's bull shit.

The Mews on Butler are on both side of Berlin Way and the street is still open there.

Good to hear. I've kind of gotten lost and walked from the end of the Millvale Trail all the way to Sharpsburg and it seemed to be a perfectly flat walk, just was all huge, chunky rocks along the railroad.

I say that because.. I'd just really like if they could actually connect them before I'm much older.. Feels like they've been in planning phase for years.

It doesn't seem like this has to do with the "gaps" in between Millvale and Sharpsburg. This is them buying the old railroad bridge that will take you straight from Aspinwall to Homestead Homewood.

I'm personally more interested in them extending the Millvale Trail up to connect to this, Sharpsburg, Fleming Bridge, etc. Also I hope we get a bike lane on Butler above 57th someday soon (10 year bike plan shows both of these, but not much movement yet).

Hop Farm is showing them on a projector screen. I might go over and watch the Tuesday Game there (unless I hear of a better suggestion in Lawrenceville).

“We’re extremely humbled and thankful for the opportunity, and that’s genuine, that’s not fluff talk,” said Abdullah Salem, the store’s owner. The family business began in Oakland more than 40 years ago, and currently operates on Penn Avenue in the Strip District. That location will close as the grocer moves to the Hill.
