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. I am here to be near my child. From 02/08 to 06/15 this blog pushed free speech to the envelope, so others could take heart and speak unafraid. Email me at hoffjohnw@gmail.com

Do Not Adjust Your Computer Monitor, These Slummy Images Are Just As They Appear...
Contributed Photos, Jeff Skrenes
Continuing with the previous posting about "Mr. Slummy" and his big dreams at 2515 3rd St. N., here are more pictures contributed by Hawthorne Housing Director Jeff Skrenes, a.k.a. "The Hawthorne Hawkman."
First of all, the top photo is NOT upside down. Yes, the words...
"Keep Out" are painted on the door, and those words are upside down but, well, the photo is right side up. In the next image, renovation activity spills over to the public sidewalk but, hey, who cares? The last photo gives an idea what the house looks like right now.
I'm guessing vinyl siding will follow, none of this original-style historic clapboard stuff, no sir!
