Emerson-Garfield Neighborhood Council held its inaugural Concert in the Park on Sunday, July 28. The band Island Soul performed a fantastic, groove-filled set with plenty of new, updated, and classic tunes, and Smokin’ Rome’s was on hand serving up his delicious BBQ and soul food. The event was everything that we’d hoped for a first-time event. It was well attended and there was a great neighborhood vibe. One unplanned bonus was that the slope of Emerson Park created a natural…

Corbin Park Yard Sale, June 15

Corbin Park Yard Sale, June 15

The annual Corbin Park Yard Sale will take place next Saturday, June 15. That’s all the info we’ve got, unfortunately. We’re assuming that it will run — as in years past — from 9am to 4pm, rain or shine. And, assuming other details remain the same, the participating homes will span the blocks between Division and Post [map] in Emerson-Garfield — which means streets like Waverly Place, Park Place, Cleveland and Euclid. They’ll be selling everything under the sun: antiques, collectibles,…
