About Barbara Snyder

I have known Chrissie Hynde for many years and assisted her briefly when she was looking to put her vegan restaurant in Akron. Chrissie's restaurant was in the same building as this condo so it made sense for her to own one of the new units and have it renovated to suite her unique style. I am managing the leasing of her lof condo for her now. Chrissie and I both attended Firestone High School where she is listed on their wall of fame along with the Black Keys who also attended high school there. I originally met Chrissie through my next door neighbors in Highland Square where she would visit when coming to town to see her relatives.

Barbara Snyder purchased this condo in 2009
