Does the Elmwood Village Association get involved with paint colors for houses in the Elmwood Village? Does anyone know?

There is a house on St. James Place that is literally "crossing guard orange"! It is such a disgrace to the entire, lovely street! It shouldn't be allowed.

Wasn't it in the 80's when the Allentown Association was going through some of the same issues with paint colors and preserving the integrity of the neighborhood?

Did the people on St. James get the paint on sale or something? Are they color blind? Didn't they notice when it was first going up, how hideous it was?

They must be loony living in a color house with such a high vibration!

You know, this has really been bugging me for a while now. The Hunt office on Elmwood and Breckenridge is so NOT a neighborhood merchant. They are corporate and un-neighborly!

First of all, they took out or painted over those beautiful old wooden shelves that were there from when the store was a neighborhood pharmacy. I am aware that the clothing store before Hunt did paint over some of them but it is a sin that the beautiful, rich, old fashioned shelves are gone.

I have never, ever seen even one person in the office there. They do not allow anyone to post anything in their store front about neighborhood happenings, they do not allow anyone to park in any of their spaces in the back of the store- even though there are never any of their own customers in them. They are just plain, outright unfriendly!

Even during the Elmwood Arts Festival they were not open and yet still would not even let any vendors park in their few spaces.

Then when I spoke to 2 guys from Ceceila's who were in the back smoking a butt, they told me that Hunt is so ignorant that they will not even let delivery trucks back up into the tiny lot to unload deliveries. They make them go around and double park on Elmwood to make deliveries. Apparently, the two spots that are behind the restaurant belong to Ceceila's but Hunt won't let the delivery trucks drive over their "property" to make the deliveries!

This is not a friendly, neighborly, typical Elmwood merchant. I hope that noone in the "neighborhood" lists their house with or buys through Hunt Real Estate! They are very unElmwood like!!!
