  1. University is weird for its unevenness. Luxury cars two blocks from a pawn shop. Strip club across the street from an elementary school. What should be a booming business district by UAH smells of desperation.

    • It’s an odd little bit there between Sparkman and Jordan, for sure. My first place was on Lancewood Dr. in what was then called University Parke. It was quirky and old, and my telephone number was a simple and oft-repeated transposition of the Residence Inn’s number, but nothing bad ever happened to me. I had to move to Flagstone to become a crime victim.

      (And there, my phone number started with 772-, and the same number except with the prefix 722 was the Madison Police Department. Good times. But I digress.)

      It’d be cool for UAH to buy all of that property–maybe everything on the north side of University from Putnam to Boxwood–and expand into it. The ATO house was actually in there when I lived over there.
