Another "Perk" of City Living 11.03.2006 | 0 Comment(s)
For the past 2 years, the intersection of Macklind and Murdoch was home to a vacant dry cleaners. Stop by that same intersection today and you probably won't recognize the place.

The Southampton neighborhood is now home to a cozy new cafe named the Murdoch Perk. I'm absolutely in love with this place and it's the exact reason why I moved to the City. Having a place like this so close to my house is a definite perk for me and I hope more businesses like the Murdoch Perk open up along the burgeoning Macklind Avenue. It's such a pleasure to be able to step out of my house, take a quick walk and within 5 minutes have a warm & inviting, locally owned business, cater to me with bright smiles. How often do you get that at a Starbucks or McDonalds?

I was so impressed with the Murdoch Perk that I offered to donate my design & marketing services to them. It's so important to me to support the businesses in the neighborhood and I felt if I could help them out, I'd be doing the neighborhood and myself a huge service.

So, if you ever find yourself in my beautiful south side neighborhood, check out one of the shops and restaurants along Macklind Avenue. Who knows, you might just be helping South City's next hub of retail activity take off.
