I’ve never heard of anything like this question from a first floor owner; it sounds like something bizarre is going on with their incoming plumbing. If anyone has any advice for them, please put it in the comments
I’ve been having this issue since moving in mid-winter, and I’m trying to find the root cause:
When I turn on the shower, the water flows clear and hot. However, when I try to use the bathtub spout, the water turns brown and runs cold. I replaced my water heater, and the bathtub is the only faucet with this issue.
Anyone know what the cause might be, or has anyone had a similar issue?
Does anyone have any experience with local appliance repair companies? Our dryer has started squeaking and thumping on occasion and needs a once-over (and probably some new bearings). Sharing any companies you’ve used successfully in the comments would be much appreciated!
There’s a Multicultural Day event with food and music going on from 11am to 7pm at City Hall Plaza today, which sounds like a fun and free way to spend what’s shaping up to be a lovely summer day.

On a totally different note, in the process of looking up some other info, I came across the real estate listing for the back section of the building and thought I’d share.
For those unaware, it’s apparently fairly normal for a piece of commercial property to switch hands repeatedly as a project inches closer to completion. That’s certainly been the case with this slow-moving rehab over the past decade.
The property lines are particularly interesting. It’s a very weird lot, and the boundaries in the two images in their brochure don’t match up. I can’t quite figure out if the difference is due solely to some really sloppy imaging, or because the first image excludes the areas of the property where we have a right-of-way (like our back stairs or the parking space in front of our loading dock), while the second image shows their full lot, including all the areas we have a legal right to use.
If you’re a Canal Place unit owner and did not get an email late today from management with important financial information, please check your junk/spam folder. Spam filters can be notoriously erratic, especially with group emails, and this information is particularly important.
From a neighbor:
Is anyone moving – or know someone who is moving – and could use some free packing items?
I have bubble wrap and dish/plate spacers that I’d like someone who could use them to come get.
Can Georgi at 978-764~5570 and they are yours!
