join in

i started this blog as an aid to communicate in the building so please leave comments.
As always keep them civil.
Part of being a good neighbor is respecting your downstairs neighbor and side neighbor as best as possible.
sometimes we don't realize how far our sounds travel,i didn't.
throw rugs and runners can really help quiet the place down.
myself i am looking at modular carpeting for my bedroom, i only need the carpeting on the circumference of the bed since that is the only area i walk.

welcome to one hawley terrace

i have lived in this building for about 28 years and i have never seen this level of non communication and lack of neighbor mingling.
i am not sure what is the cause but hopefully this blog will open up some communication from neighbors.
i am a big believer in crowd sourcing and using the internet to learn and communicate.
As a person who has spent too many days incapacitated and recovering from surgeries, i know how fortunate i am that i was able to start communicating via the Internet in 1995 .
i have been trying to spend more time outside on the terrace to meet my neighbors and find out what has been going on in the building.
not everything i have heard has been positive, but i hope with more open communication these things can change around for the better.
i hope i don't eat my words!
