[Ref: \u201cD3 Update: Promenade on the Hillcrest horizon\u201d Vol. 10, Issue 22, or online at bit.ly\/promenade-ward<\/a>.]<\/em><\/p>\n And out of those 70 new parking spaces, the people who live on the street will have assigned parking for their respective domiciles? The proposal is not the issue, but how it effects the current residents of Normal Street, which you do not mention once! Did you even think about it? Everything happens on Normal Street. They shut the street down for more events than I care to keep count of and you want to KEEP all of them there and add more! So you\u2019re moving to my neighborhood and deal with all the [explicative] it\u2019s going to bring yourself? OK cool, sounds good.<\/p>\n \u2014Sean Smith, via our website.<\/em><\/p>\n [Ref: \u201cPainting Hillcrest a new shade,\u201d Vol. 10, Issue 23, or online at bit.ly\/htc-arts<\/a>.] <\/em><\/p>\n I\u2019ve been guest curating monthly art shows at Subterranean Coffee Boutique in Hillcrest for the last year. It is exciting to see new opportunities and growth for the art community in Hillcrest. There are so many talented artists in San Diego and Hillcrest can offer an abundance of entertainment and talent given the opportunity and collaboration of artists and curators.<\/p>\n \u2014Jennifer Cooksey, via our website.<\/em><\/p>\n [Ref: \u201cDiving into the 30th Street Pipeline Project\u201d Vol. 10, Issue 18, or online at bit.ly\/30th-st-pipeline.]<\/em><\/p>\n Noise during night time hours is unbearable!

The plastic is peeling off, the colors or horrible as well as they really don\u2019t give any good directions.<\/p>\n \u2014Mike Stephens, via our website.<\/em><\/p>\n [Ref: \u201cBuilding castles in the heights,\u201d Vol. 7, Issue 26, or online at bit.ly\/castle-heights<\/a>.]<\/em><\/p>\n Fascinating article! My mom, brother, sister and I lived in \u201cthe Castle\u201d from 1967-1972. EVERYBODY knew where that house was. My husband hoped to buy it at some point, but passed away before he could realize the goal.<\/p>\n \u2014Peggy Hunt, via our website.<\/em><\/p>\n I used to live in the White Castle house with my mom, two sisters and for a time my brother back in the 1960s and early \u201970s \u2026 before the need for iron gates and window protection. [It had] wooden floors, push-button wall light switches, an ancient stove we called \u201cBen Franklin\u201d and a drop-down ironing board in the kitchen, which usually turned into a dining table. I used to climb up into the main turret to watch the stars with my telescope \u2026 or take part in water balloon fights! The area of 42nd and Landis [streets] was one of the safest parts of the neighborhood, especially since it kind of became a police meeting point for coffee from my mom and where they could work on their reports. Great memories there, glad to see it and the other one down the street are still there. Sad though, that the gates needed to go up.<\/p>\n \u2014Mike Mesmer, via our website.<\/em><\/p>\n \u2014Letters to the editor are encouraged.
