Funny Things Happen on Friday

August 15th, 2008 · 1 Comment

Not Fired: All you loyal CW Louisville Live watchers (OK, Mom?) wondering what happened to us this morning — the boys had some special Olympics stuff going on this morning. We’ll be back on Tuesday.
You Can’t Do This: You can’t hire a prostitute, have her come to your house, argue with her over pricing, put […]

Wayside Seeks Mercy Property

August 11th, 2008 · No Comments

The Wayside Christian Mission has its eyes on vacant property on East Broadway in the former Mercy Academy building.
When Wayside signed an agreement to sell its East Market property at the end of June, it said it would relocate those facilities to East Jefferson, where it could build a new structure. But now, its leadership […]

A Walk on the Green Side

August 6th, 2008 · 1 Comment

I’m walking with Gill Holland, the man behind the city’s Green Building on Market Street, and am having trouble digesting this flurry of information. We start at his office in Gallery NuLu, where Holland gives me a quick tour of the Ashley Cecil-Sarah Lyon show while flipping lights off. Holland’s office isn’t what you’d expect […]

Culture Memory Maven on Baer’s

July 22nd, 2008 · 3 Comments

It was WHAS-TV’s top story last Friday. WAVE-TV produced a nice package. The paper did two stories on it. When a century-old downtown firm closes up shop, it’s big news.
To most of us that don’t sew, the closing of Baer Fabrics won’t change our lives much, except we’ll notice when they get around to taking […]

Gut Reaction: John Yarmuth

July 21st, 2008 · No Comments

For nearly two years, Cindy Lamb’s Gut Reaction column ran in LEO. It was an idea imported from L.A., where she had done “dinner-views” with Hollywood types like Buck Henry and David Lynch. When she moved to Louisville for good in the early 1990s, she found plenty of famous and not-so-famous folks to eat with […]

Friday’s Focus on Local Media Folks

July 18th, 2008 · 4 Comments

Finally, with Felner: The C-J gave us a three-week head start in covering the Robert Felner fiasco at U of L, but now has put together front-page stories back-to-back and even penned an editorial on the matter. Meanwhile, we can’t believe Pres. James Ramsey’s continued support of Felner in light of the controversy. […]

Good Times for the Homeless Business

July 2nd, 2008 · No Comments

If you know enough about the ongoing story of the Wayside Christian Mission, it’s kind of laughable for Rev. Tim Moseley to write in this morning’s C-J that it was “difficult” to sell the property on East Market Street.
At the risk of sounding politically incorrect — after all, no one wants to be pegged as […]

Done Deal at Wayside

June 26th, 2008 · No Comments

Those 10 blocks on East Market are much more likely to develop into retail, upscale housing and restaurants, now that Wayside Christian Mission has agreed to accept a $5 million buyout on the property. The buyers are a group headed by Gill Holland and his wife, Augusta Brown Holland.
Wayside is holding a press conference any […]

Wayside May Sell to Neighbors

June 25th, 2008 · No Comments

Wayside Christian Mission leaders are willing to listen to offers to sell their East Market Street properties, and some members of the East Downtown Business Association apparently are interested in buying.
The C-J is reporting that Nina Moseley, Wayside’s chief operating officer, has said that an offer for the property from the EDBA is being […]
