Wallingford Playfield equipment is scheduled to be replaced this Fall (and will be closed for a while while that happens) due to a termite infestation in the swings.

It's a $400,000 project, and the Parks Department is collecting feedback from park users on what they'd like to see replace the old equipment: something as close as possible to…

Wood art in the hood

The sun is out, and it’s a good time to pound the pavements and bask in the lovely weather while we can! If you, like me, enjoy walking all around our eclectic neighbourhood, you’d have noticed a beautiful carved tree trunk at 37th & Burke! When one of our editors tipped me off about this, it really piqued my curiosity. I set out to know more. When I went to interview Neal Myerson at his yard, his story wasn’t quite what…
