Another house improving on the block?

Workers just spent the weekend putting a fresh coat of paint on one of the remaining "problem houses" on our block. The owner of the home is trying to sell the house, in an obviously challenging market.

The paint job was much needed--Here's hoping it helps him sell the place to some responsible home-0wners that are yet another brick in the increasingly solid foundation of our neighborhood.

For those of you keeping score, that is five houses and a duplex that have been fixed up on our block since we moved to Cole in fall of '05... Very encouraging!
