FWIW
Wait, what strip mall are you talking about?

That number thingy, 47 or the Westend.

Congratulations Lakewood! We so deserve some more positive recognition--and this is a great one! Thanks for posting Rhonda and thanks to all who made this happen!

Ok, just making sure I didn't miss anything.

This is super cool for Lakewood to be mentioned in This Old House Magazine. perhaps someone can get them out here to do a show?

Let's rejoice in this before we ask for more. :wink:

While "This Old House" is nice, so are the write-ups in Forbes, Crains, Ad Age, Times, Journal, etc.

This has been a very good time for positive press. One reason I cannot believe the graffiti artists hit it first and hard. Some do not get it.

One thing that has been found, the East and West Coast are prime areas to find new residents in. We also need to get info to Europe, as there seems to be an interest from Albania and Belgium.

As for the TV show, watch this space.
