Craig's revenge? Attack of the Killer Zombie Street Mattresses shifts to a rental property on Market.

This is Market, not Elm. We believe it's a different mattress.

Last week, we visited the Mattress Corner of 5th & Elm.

Twelve days later, that mattress is still right there, justified and ancient, on the Elm Street curb.


Finally on the 23rd, it was gone. Is the third time a charm?

Meanwhile, the street mattress explosion shifts to Market Street, within eyesight of the Break Wind Lofts at Duggins Flats, the posited "ripple effect" of which never mentioned going to the mattresses.

The pride, the glory ... the Craig Block.

Today's street mattress comes to us courtesy of Ron Craig, who recently testified at council against any form of regulation pertaining to his rental properties.

Those protests go back a few years. I can find no follow-ups, either at NAC or local media. Does anyone know how the Great Vinyl Siding Hairball of 2012 turned out?

Too many cooks spoil the broth?

How disappointing that Average Josef can't get "purgatory" right.

Spell check, Mein Führer.

Craig application over siding again denied in New Albany; Preservation commission’s first decision was upheld by court of appeals, by Daniel Suddeath (News and Tribune)

NEW ALBANY — A retroactive request to allow vinyl siding to be used to replace the original wood material of the house that quarters Bradford Realty was denied by the New Albany Historic Preservation Commission this week.

It was the second time the commission rejected Bradford Realty owner Ron Craig’s petition for a Certificate of Appropriateness — or COA — for the installation of vinyl siding, and the previous decision was upheld by the Indiana Court of Appeals in March.

Marginally less to deplore.



We've been watching the Williams Plumbing building for a while, and a few days ago, the old wretched siding started coming off ... some wrapping and plywood started to be tacked into place ... and yesterday, new siding started appearing.

See: Better yet: More to Deplore. Here's what it looked like for the past three and a half years.
