Tillinghast Place Garage 4 Sale?

Well, not a garage for sale, but rather a garage sale...

Is there any interest in participating in a garage sale for the whole street? Efrat Forgette is soliciting feedback on this. If you are interested in selling your stuff at such an event, please post a followup comment or email me at:TillinghastPlace@gmail.com

The possible dates would be Saturday June 6 or Saturday June 20.

C'mon, you must have an old pair of skis or an antique tiffany lamp you want to get rid of.

Home tour - Parkside

The Parkside tour of homes is scheduled for Sunday May 17, 2009.

57 Tillinghast Place for sale

It seems that 57 Tillinghast Place is on the market again, at least unofficially...For those of you who don't remember, this is the Davidson House, Tillinghast Place's own Frank Lloyd Wright-designed house. Also, for those memory-challenged types, the house was at the center of a swirl of controversy about a year ago (so long ago?!) regarding its use as a short-term rental - a B&B but no B(reakfast).

The house is currently owned by The Davidson House LLC.

No word yet on the asking price, but if anyone knows, please post a comment, or email.

Bulls Bowl

While not specifically Tillinghast Place related, I thought a couple of pictures from the International Bowl wouldn't hurt. I took these just before the game and then the Bull's first offensive possession. Unfortunately for UB, their offense was not, well, offensive. Or maybe it was. Anyway, UB lost its first ever Bowl game. But it was a fun experience just the same. And, we weren't the only Tillinghasters at the game...
