Roberta's street was a safe place for black performers when that wasn't easy to come by, and it's a safe place now for yoga students and those who don't mind being a couple blocks off the beaten path, in return for extra space and extra quiet. It's nestled in an eclectic neighborhood, but I could walk everywhere I wanted to go, so it was perfect for me. (Having a Trader Joe's four blocks away was an extra bonus!) Roberta was working much of the time, so we saw each other only briefly. (I was pretty busy myself.) I'd happily stay with Roberta again and I appreciate her hospitality.
