Tulips on Troost is a coalition of business and individuals working with the Southtown Foundation to transform the public's perception of Troost Avenue. Our goal is to plant one million tulips by Spring 2010 in honor of one of our Dutch city founders, Dr. Benoist Troost. We are working with businesses, neighborhood residents and community volunteers along the Troost corridor from 23rd street to 95th streets to develop and maintain flower beds of annuals and green spaces to enhance the tulip plantings. We are actively asking businesses on Troost to increase their landscaping budgets and to beautify their private grounds in addition to seeking their contributions for public community spaces which will be planted and maintained by our volunteers. This will be the first step in out on-going efforts to transform a neglected urban street into an environment of hope and vision for the future.

"Ticklin' The Strings" by Sweet Hollywaiians
Amazing Japanese hot string band playing 1920's, 30's, 40's style hawaiian, swing, calypso, blues, italian music and originals,featuring vintage instruments.3 songs with Robert Armstrong and Tony Marcus(from Robert Crumb and His Cheap Suit Serenaders)
"The Sweet Hollywaiians have probably the best feel for this 20's music of any string band working today. They manage the rare feat of sounding relaxed even when their playing is hot, are top notch musicians with tasteful arrangements and a full, rich, warm sound.Plus, they have a nice gamut of tunes, from King Nawahi to Giovanni Vicari to Bobby Leecan. See them live, if you can, for an unforgettable experience. If you can't, buy their Cds!" ~ Terry Zwigoff
