New Albany is a state of mind … but whose? Since 2004, we’ve been observing the contemporary scene in this slowly awakening old river town. If it’s true that a pre-digital stopped clock is right twice a day, when will New Albany learn to tell time?

Bracket Busting: March Neighborhood Derby Madness.
Mirroring the NCAA tournament our Senior Editor is doing his best to ignore, Broken Sidewalk is holding a neighborhood competition, pitting up-and-comers against some of the more established areas in the metro.
The first round is nearly complete with the New Albany rubber against Beechmont/South Louisville currently in the queue.
The Highlands has posted the most points so far, tallying 163 votes in its defeat of the Anchorage/J-town/Norton Commons area. We've been averaging a little over three hundred readers a day here at NAC the past week. You do the math-- right after you go vote at the link provided.

I'll keep you updated. Two clicks per round is all that I ask.

ReplyDeleteGood one.
ReplyDeleteI see that your pussycats are doing well, so far, in the loser's tourney.
Beechmont's beating us. Go vote again everyone!
ReplyDeleteOk people, South Louisville is now beating us. Everyone knows we're better than South Louisville.
ReplyDeleteAlso note that it may be possible to vote more than once. Just sayin.
I redid my civic duty!
ReplyDeleteC'mon -- it's only a four vote deficit!!
Nice work folks. Remain vigilant.
ReplyDeleteFunny how NA has received as many votes as:
ReplyDelete1. Germantown, Paristown, Schnitzelburg
2. Smoketown-Jackson Park & Shelby Park
3. Crescent Hill, Clifton, Clifton Heights and
4. Phoenix Hill & Irish Hill
Combined!
THE FIGHT’S NOT OVER YET!
I many have voted from multiple servers. Maybe I am a bad person. . .
ReplyDeleteI'll be right there in Hades with you, Tabitha.
ReplyDeleteWe Won!
ReplyDelete322 to 235.
Next up: Clifton/Clifton Heights/Crescent Hill
I propose a new post to fire people up - why vote New Albany over Clifton/Crescent Hill?
ReplyDeleteHere's a few:
- We brew better beer. Nuff said.
- You can go and do anything in your tshirt and jeans, including spend three figures on a fine-dining meal at the Windsor, and no one cares.
-It's a realistic possibility that an average joe could own a huge historic home...and for peanuts compared to the other guys.
-YYYY MMMM CCCC A!
-Loop Island Wetlands
-We're in a blue state
etc...
B.W., that's got my vote. All 20 of 'em!
