“Dear PoPville,

I live in an 1890s row house and received notice of a massive mixed-use development coming to the block a few doors down from my home. As part of the project, several existing buildings will be razed, and they’re attached to my and my neighbors’ homes. Needless to say, we’re concerned about how the construction will impact our homes and the immediate vicinity. We don’t want to end up with blocked steets/alleys, increased traffic, cracked foundations or something worse! We plan to attend an upcoming zoning meeting to share our concerns, and I’m wondering if anyone in the community has lived through this experience, and what, if anything, can be done to protect our interests in advance.”

Thanks to D. for sending:

“Saturday at 1 pm in Trinidad. Apparently some person was “trying to parallel park” and somehow ended up ramming into the houses. One porch column of two houses were destroyed. Nobody was injured, thankfully.

Never thought to see something like this on a quiet block.”

“Dear PoPville,

Over the weekend my husband was doing some yard work and he saw a hipster kid (young adult) on a scooter stopped in front of our house. He opened his backpack pulled out a ketchup bottle and started spraying our neighbor’s car with what looked like watered-down ketchup. My husband yelled at the person and he wasn’t scared off until my husband started approaching him. This all happened in broad daylight.

My neighbor has lived in Trinidad for 70 years and runs a hauling business. Read More
