875WestEnd.com was started in 2006 by resident and active community member, Mara Chibnik. In 2012 she initiated the site’s makeover with residents, Jim Kendrick and Menachem Pastreich. Sadly, she passed away before its completion. We dedicate this site to Mara’s memory, with gratitude for her good spirit and contributions to our community.
We hope the site will foster even greater warmth and understanding between us at 875, and provide a valuable resource for all. And it’s hoped others will share their stories, pictures, ideas, knowledge and good humor here. If you’re interested, please email the webmaster.
It must also be acknowledged that Mara arranged for her employer 
to provide us with free web hosting, which they generously have agreed to extend indefinitely. A huge thank you to Panix!
