Universally Human Pics are Up!






























Once again, we can't thank everyone enough who made Universally Human possible.  Our neighborhood hosted about 1,500-2,000 people throughout the day and they experienced what a great place Deer Park and Vinton Street are!  We have posted a few pictures from the event, thanks to Jim Lamb of Blacksheep Photography.  Please visit Deer Park Neighborhood on facebook to see many more!

Take a look at the stage!

You can't take a look at the actual stage because it isn't up yet, but Vinton Street from 17th to 19th streets will be closed down bright and early Saturday morning.  In the meantime, you can start dreaming about some awesome performances by Midtown Marauders d.j.'s, Spence Love, Flawl3ss, Mission Man, Disguise, Poncho and the Contra Band and The Basement Dance Studio.  Don't miss out on the fun!
