back to the park?

I lived in Highland Park for 10 years, 13 if you count my brief stint in Morningside. I left an apartment that I was in love with, literally, to move to a busier street as I felt I was missing out on life by being back in sleepy (and gun ridden) Highland Park. Now, Highland Park has some of the most beautiful homes in the city, it's just sketchy in some parts. I've recently found another apartment there that I am in love with, it's under renovation. So my goal is to get moved in and celebrate New Years Eve in my Victorian wet dream. I will how ever miss living next door to Pho Minh, who knew I liked Vietnamese food. Maybe the brief stint out was worth it. I did grow a lot as a person and made many a new friend over here on Penn Ave. But honestly, wine tastes better in a charming hard wood floor apartment more so than in a loft...trust me on that.
