TUP, you should become a member of the East Village Association given your property interest in the community. Their dues are fairly cheap and you can help promote the neighborhood becoming an even better and more active part of our urban fabric.

^ Problem is, I'm not a resident of EV, I just own a property there, so I'm not sure if that counts. Also, it would be different if I was a significant land owner, but as of right now just owning one property probably won't cut it. Perhaps that may change in the future?
It's good to see an experienced developer like the Fifields doing this project, which means it is much more likely to get done. They must see the same potential in this neighborhood that I do. The only problem with this hood is that it gets a bit shady as you go further east or south, but the bones are fantastic.
It may not be evident on paper yet, but on the ground property in areas like this are really hot. If the Fifields, a downtown highrise developer, are moving in, then you know that this neighborhood has made it.
