The original one under Obama's reign I meant.

I just did my taxes and went to submit them. You can't E-file them, you need to send in a copy of your settlement paper with your claim so you need to mail it in the old ass slow way. So in 4-6 weeks I'm going to get some serious loot.

Back when I did mine they didn't need it and I could e-file. Although I would take having to mail some papers over having to pay the money back.

Yeah, why let Uncle Sam hold your money for an extra year?

Shoot... in that case I am gonna make out like a bandit this year

Read this in popcity, I'm interested in seeing what these new developments will do to our neighborhood as I'm right on the edge of the building site.

"One of the more exciting developments in Oakmont surrounds the future of prime real estate on the riverfront, the site of the Edgewater Steel brownfield.  Two large development projects are planned. The River’s Edge of Oakmont touts a diverse mix of 170 single homes, city homes, condos and retail space on 28 acres on the south side of Oakmont. Rothschild, Doyno Architects designed the project, which recently won a region and urban design award from AIA Pittsburgh. The second project is the Edgewater by KACIN, a 241-unit riverfront development on 31 acres, which will include a mix of dwellings: single family homes, metro flats and townhomes. Both projects are pending final approval and construction is expected to commence this fall on Edgewater and next year on River's Edge.


Both projects also plan to tie into with existing recreational facilities at Riverside Park, to the north, and the arboretum walking trail. Riverside offers a host of activities, from ballfields to tennis courts, and the area's Dark Hollow Woods to the east features lovely hiking trails.


The Three Rivers Heritage Trail, a proposed 37-mile greenway system,  also has high hopes for a long and winding trail system that ultimately will run along either side of the Allegheny, including a northward extension that will connect from Pittsburgh through Verona and Oakmont.


So much to do, so much to see, so much happening so stay tuned!"

Yeah I heard about those things, including the bike trail.  We will have to bike up to Verona, and then keep on going till Erie

Now if only they will add some redlights to the 8 way intersections and replace the close grocery store with a trader joes then Oakmont would be the shit!

Maybe it'll be like "hole" in the west end...  sometime in your lifetime.

That's where Liz works.

Looks like that firm won a certificate of merit for "Penn at 29th" during Design Pittsburgh.
