I'd like to provide a link to this story in the Herald-Sun but frankly I haven't figured out what the HS is doing with their on-line presence. One minute it's sending me a new password for my account which works fine. Two minutes later it's asking me to sign in again and it doesn't work and gives me a message that the account doesn't exist. The link on their home page to their real estate site hasn't worked for quite a while now either. Actually the page (trianglerealestatelink.com) doesn't seem to exist at all anymore. Oh well. We all struggle sometimes with this online stuff.

But we do thank them for the nice picture and the report in Sunday's "Your Community" section about Mangum 506 award of one of the annual Golden Leaf Awards. These awards are presented jointly by the City/County Appearance Committee and Keep Durham Beautiful, Inc. The Golden Leaf Awards were established to "acknowledge and encourage design and maintenance that contribues to the visual beauty, sustainablity and usability of the Durham community."

The design team from Center Studio Architecture in Downtown Durham accepted the award which the judges commented "represents a courageous effort to extend the downtown community and do so with good urban plannin principles"

The Cleveland-Holloway Historic Home Tour takes place today from 11:00 until 3:00. Begin the tour at 407 Oakwood and don't forget to stop at the Mangum 506 Condos. Maybe we're not historic but we're making history with contemporary residential options in the heart of Durham's Downtown revival.

This was our little corner of the world back in the late 60's. That's Wyatt street that was eliminated to extend Seminary Street east from Mangum. The upholstery shop was a converted filling station sitting where Seminary now is. The whole story is told on Gary Kueber's blog endangered Durham. The first picture in Gary's post is an aerial view from the late forties showing some of the fine old home that flanked Mangum Steet and our little corner of the world.
