Are you in need of driveway repair work?
The Ravena company will be restoring Hyland Court and the mailbox parking area.
While Precision has its crew and equipment here, it is offering to repair/patch/repave any residential driveways in need of such work, at what Ground Committee Chairman John Victor terms "a deep discount." (If you wish to check the Angie's List review of the company, click here.)
John has posted a signup sheet on the mailbox gazebo bulletin board. If you wish to avail yourself of the paving service, please print your name and telephone number on the sheet next to your house number. Precision will contact you and give you an estimate for the work.
If you have questions beforehand, please call John at 874-1459, or e-mail him.
Christopher-LaVine umbrella to cover wine shop
The news that Vic Christopher and Heather LaVine are planning to open another downtown Troy venture is not surprising. Their track record of revitalizing decrepit buildings and turning them into vibrant places of business is well know.
Their latest project is a "retail boutique wine shop," according to plans they submitted to the city on Tuesday. It would be located at 22 Second Street, not far from their Lucas Confectionery Wine Bar which is located at No. 12, near Monument Square.
The plan is to offer only small-batch wines from small makers, the sorts of wines that have proven popular at their wine bar.
The plan for redevelopment of the long-vacant building is similar to the process the husband-wife team used to create their wine bar, The Grocery food market and their tavern-restaurant Peck's Arcade: Stabilize the building throughout, then concentrate on street-level renovations to create the business space.

If you plan any exterior painting ...
Under our bylaws, exterior paint colors cannot be changed without prior written consent of the THCA Board of Directors.
The list can be downloaded from the selection of Terrace documents available by scrolling down the right side of this page. In some instances, paint codes have been changed since originally posted, but professional paint sellers can match the necessary tint.
Annual outdoor spring cleaning coming up
The project, which will be headed up by Bob Malphrus who will assign the individual tasks, is a great way to help maintain the appearance of the common grounds of our community, as well as get to better know the many new residents we have throughout the Terrace.So, get your hats, gloves, water bottles and hand tools ready and meet us at the Mailbox Gazebo shortly before 10 o'clock that day.
