IIWho lives here

Read on the street, not on a spreadsheet.

Setting

The buildings here are old and close together, and what that does to people is the whole subject of this guide.

Work

Work here sits at the top of the income scale and runs through a fairly narrow set of fields.

What they are hungry for

For one person to use their name without having to check it first.

A neighbor you might meetInvented, so no one is a case study
Ike

Thirty-four, a year into the building, already on nodding terms with more people than he can name.

IIIWhere it is crackingSigns, not proof of anything

You cannot know the reason from the sidewalk.

The neighbor who apologizes for existing
Mail that stacks up
The refusal that comes too fast
The rest of
the guide

What to do this week, what to say, and why the news is good on this particular street.

The full guide carries the four first actions, three real conversation scenarios with the notes underneath each line, a story worth telling here, and the Gospel written into what this street is actually carrying. It is free, and it opens in the browser.
