the old north st. louis restoration group is sponsoring a series of free movie nights in october, with a giant inflatable screen provided by frontyard features. i must say that old north is my second favorite neighborhood in the city, love to benton park, but first in terms of the pioneering, progressive spirit of residents. when adam and i bought our house three and a half years ago, we considered old north, but ended up in benton park instead.
it's awesome to see what's happening with the crown square development. i have had an eye on the pedestrian mall for 5 years now, since i first began photographing in north city. i always fantasized about it actually being something one day.
anyway, go check out the goonies tomorrow night. and take a look at all of the action in old north. be inspired.

You almost made me regret my decision to become a metallurgist instead of a civil/architectural with those links, Becca. Historic preservation is a little dream hobby I have a goal of participating more fully in one day soon. I am scouting out the groups here in Houston already, but I don't feel they are nearly as strong as the ones in STL. Maybe I can help them get there....???
