Gannondale Pillars Are Glowing!

Both of the pillar lights at Hanley Road and Cornell Avenue are now lit with state-of-the-art, energy efficient LED technology (not too bright, just right!). The north pillar has also been tuck pointed.

A big "thank you" to the Gannondale neighbors who supported the Gannondale Pillar Repair Fund with their generous donations.

As you take your evening walk, give yourself a nice pat on the back. Without your help, these important Gannondale landmarks would not be glowing so brightly and beautifully!

Barred Owl Heard on Cornell

Some Gannondale folks have heard a Barred Owl calling on Cornell Avenue!

According to one neighbor, "the Barred Owl in Missouri usually does a very sparse, rhythmic "who-cooks-for you" call but I think its call outside MO varies, as this recording from Cornell University shows.

Mating season?
