The Brickhouse Abridged


I love little stories or anecdotes that perfectly sum up an establishment. My girlfriend told me one tonight that I think pretty much captures the spirit, the collective unconscious, the zeitgeist of The Brickhouse.

"I parked my car once overnight in front of the Brickhouse and when I came to get it the next morning their was a piece of deli meat on my windshield."

UPDATED:

GF: "I don't know that it came from the Brickhouse"

Me: "Yes it did"

Are you Going to Go My Greenway?

Now that the initial phase of the Mill River restoration is nearing completion, eyes seem to be looking north along a potential greenway linking up to Scalzi Park.

The info and invite from the Mill River Collaborative’s latest newsletter.

Initial design concepts for the Greenway between Scalzi Park and Mill River Park will be shared with the public at a workshop on Thursday December 10th. Design consultants Milone & MacBroom will be on hand to discuss and receive feedback and suggestions on their initial design schemes.
The plans are intended to lead to the restoration of the native plant environment along the west side of the river and the creation of a continuous path for walking, jogging and cycling.
