Starting today you have a chance to win a cup of coffee at one of Champaign Urbana’s great java joints- just figure out where the house is that we are featuring here.
So #1 is a very inusual place- a metal- all steel house...hmm.


Where is this unusual place???
Here is what you do: email davehensleigh@gmail.com or call 217.369.9897 with the correct address or nearest intersection and you will get a coupon for a free coffee….if you are correct. Now there are several of these around the area, built after WWII during the housing boom- but where is this one?
While you are here, take a look around some real estate options in the twin cities area.


Good morning Champaign Urbana!
This week’s mystery house is not really a house but an apartment building…and this one looks like it should be in Chicago or New York.



Guess where this place is and you will win a cup of good java from Aroma. Call Dave at 217.369.9897

Great new video on Champaign Urbana

For those who love this micro urban paradise on the plains- we call it CU or the twin cities or Champaign Nirvana- you must see this new video on you tube. It really catches the vision of this place.

The COOOOOL CU Jazz scene

Most people are not aware of what a quality and active jazz scene the Champaign Urbana area has. Fed by the U of I music department, there are many excellent players who crowd the venues.

Keep up with the gigs on this calendar.

Also- if you like jazz, start frequenting the Iron Post in Urbana- this is the main venue for live jazz performance.

Regular postings are kept on this blog as well.

Welcome to my new blog...and a fun contest!

Here we go with this new blog just for home buyers in the "Chambana" area. If you are new to the area- your'e going to love it here. From sites like the sunset in the header above- taken in downtown Champaign 2 or 3 years ago, to the vibrant entertainment scene- we even have a local micro brewery straight out of the old world...



















You will find current and helpful info here over the weeks to come- and you can participte in our cool little contest to try and guess where interesting spots are in Champaign Urbana. Years ago the DI (Newspaper in the U of I campus) had a contest like this featuring spots around campus. The way it works is that every week a photo gives you a hint about what it is- you just have to figure out where it is.
Our contest will cover the CU area and your prize will be a free coffee from one of our great coffee houses in the area.
