About Town: Bronxville January Happenings

Apparently, it really is wintertime, as temps over the past couple of days have plummeted to the point where the hot box at the Bronxville Train Station is tougher to get into at rush hour than Studio 54 in 1979.

Although it’s going to warm up this weekend, you may be looking for something to do indoors, and if “Alvin and the Chipmunks: Chipwrecked” isn’t your style, may we suggest something a bit more cultured – The Professional Music Series of on Sunday, January 8^th. 

“Trio Tartufo” is, according to the Club, “a French influenced program” with pieces by Debussy, Ibert, and Faure, performed by local couple Veroslav and Jessica Aura Taskov of Tuckahoe, along with pianist Inesa Sinkevych of New York City.  A suggested donation of $15 for adults, and $5 for students and children will benefit The School for Adaptive and Integrative Learning in Yonkers.  The program starts at 3pm at the club’s headquarters at 135 Midland Avenue.  For more info, email laurie@bronxvillewomensclub.org

Many folks spend Sunday’s perusing the Times’ Real Estate Section,  and Joanne Zach of recently forwarded some interesting statistics on the 2011 housing market in the Village.  Some astounding stats include the average price per square foot at $554 (down from a high of $668 in 2005) and an average sale price of $2,122,822, (down from a high of $2,427,352 in 2007). 

While a variety of factors impact these figures, they do very clearly indicate that we won’t be moving out of Yonksville anytime soon.

Finally, congrats to Yale-bound Bronxville senior Christian Conway, who was named Class C state football player of the year!

Have a great weekend, folks.  See you in the hot box.
