I wanted to ask if you can help me out.  Our cat C.C. is missing and we cant find him anywhere and I feel someone must have taken him. If you can help us out in anyway we would be grateful.
Anyone who has seen C.C. (as seen above at left) or knows of his whereabouts please contact Moe via email at animalplanetcorp (at) aol (dot) com immediately. Thanks!

This week we learned that Manhattan Avenue is to receive yet another cell phone provider: Verizon. Needless to say I was more than a little curious when I spied signs of life at Sprint’s former digs this afternoon. I struck up a conversation with the very nice man on the premises and as a result have some good news to relay. This space is slated to become something we can actually use: a hardware store! I did not get an ETA as far as when this establishment will open its doors. However, I did make it known to this gentleman that given such an establishment used to grace Sakura 6’s current home just this is addition to my community’s main drag would, in all likelihood, be quite welcome by my fellow Greenpointers.

I have good and bad news to share with you, dear readers. We’ll start with the good news first: the owner of said property has assured me he is going to leave this store’s distinctive (and downright lovely) front intact. And now the bad news: this will be yet another cell phone store. Verizon is set to make its debut on Manhattan Avenue. For those of you who are keeping count, this will be the fifth establishment located in this general area which offers this product. Here are the other four.

771 Manhattan Avenue
