I see where that is ... only thanks to the G-Maps! Never been on that side ... only moved in (and partially at that) recently.
Hit me up whenever you're around!

I love old bikes, but IMO if you're gonna urban commute an ancient full suspension like that isn't worth it. You can pick up a bombproof singlespeed hardtail MTB for like $500 (Say a used kona unit or similar) throw some 1.5" tires on it and you're good to go for the next 10 years.
