Here’s an updated PDF map of the new Tiny Fun House. My measurements may not be perfect, and my Inkscape skills are weak at best, so I can’t guarantee results. But it looks like our new place is around 420 square feet, which raises the question: what’s our new slogan going to be? We’re...

As of last Friday, the Tiny Fun House has a new location, near 82nd and York. If you are scoring at home, that is eight blocks north of the original version.
