Last week we had the special treat of a tour of Wilkinsburg by Borough Councilman Mike Lefebvre! Since Mike has been kind enough to lead similar trips some years ago, this time we saw progress being made and heard updates of things in store. We saw gorgeous houses that were rehabbed with the help of the Pittsburgh History and Landmarks Fdn., got news of the historic train station being redone, and are psyched about the Junior League coming back after 11 years to create another show house, this time at the Yingling Mansion. Afterwards in Wilkinsburg's most unique coffeehouse, other fave Biddle's Escape, we had tons to discuss. Including:
- more info from: wilkinsburgpa.gov
- croissants and anything else from Madeleine's bakery down the street from Biddle's (had to be smuggled in)
- looking up your advertising profile on Facebook and getting creeped out
- the Major Taylor biking club
- taking WOW Airlines to Israel and Iceland
- Netflix documentary Wild Wild Country
- new phrase "a whole body eyesore"
- Also this, seen in Biddle's bathroom - anything starring Bitch Thunder, Rumbón de la Calle, and the Colonel Eagleburger Goodtime Band, etc., has got to be amazing:
