••• I saw on StreetEasy that the Fairchild’s #PH and #PHCombo are both in contract (they were listed at $6.950 million and $9.995 million respectively). I think they’re related, but I can’t work up the energy to call. Vacation starts tomorrow….

••• A series of monthly workshops for parents of accelerated learners starts next week at the Downtown Community Center. Each one is $10 for non-DCC members. It’s sponsored by Jade’s Toy Box.

••• Reuben Ben-Yehuda of Plus972—which is handling marketing for Prime Essentials—sent over the postcard that founder Josh Rahmani said would be going out soon. Take a look (click to enlarge), or go straight to penyc.com/contact to tell them what you wish they’d carry. I vote for anything that I’d normally have to go to Staples for.
