Being the amazing, true-to-life adventures and (very likely) misadventures of a writer who seeks to take his education, activism and seemingly boundless energy to North Minneapolis, (NoMi) to help with a process of turning a rapidly revitalizing neighborhood into something approaching Urban Utopia.

3020 4th Street Boarded! YAY!!!
Photos By Jeff Skrenes,
Hawthorne Housing Director
So, a few weeks ago I was pitching a virtual fit over the slow, bureaucratic process in getting 3020 4th St. N. boarded and secured...
Well, I'm happy to report...
...the house is now boarded. In fact, it was boarded a week or more ago, and the "Holding Pond" blog actually reported this first, click here, and credited my publicity efforts.
Well, I don't know if blogging about an individual property speeds up the boarding process, but I've never known it to hurt. However, when the city gets a property secured, it's only right that I should say so after griping about it. I would have said so earlier, but obviously the ongoing Jordan Soap Opera has pre-empted a lot of my prime time broadcasts, so to speak.
