Silly but curious thought....anyone ever find out/ know who did the grass cutting etc at his spot? If he kept the same crew & they came week after week in the Summer...just wonder if he ever came out complaining about something or if he brought out some ice water to the workers ...or had others do it for him....were the workers who showed up allowed to use the bathroom? Did they have to start at a certain time? Day? Could be a story there...jus' sayin'.....confidentiality agreement for landscapers? Maybe they can't chirp lol.

Actually, you have an interesting curiousity. I often wondered about the "normal" affairs around PP. I also wondered about the cleaning crew and what they were restricted to. I bet they may have some interesting stories.

Interesting question. Are you talking about true landscapers? Or just a grass-cutting crew?

Doubtful that he brought out ice water, or let them use the restrooms.

I would imagine that he had strict hours that they could be there, and probably a non-disclosure agreement too.

Wonder how this would carry over to other things too -- like building maintenance, or cleaning crews, etc?

yes i have wondered who cleaned the doves cages and feed them and who cleaned the cats litter

pan. even who cleaned his bathroom or did his laundry???? you know the important questions!!!

Do you think Prince had a housekeeper for his apartment at Paisley Park?

Me being a painter, I always wondered who did the painting at Paisley Park. They had access to most of the building. I'm sure there's stories out there. I know I've seen lots of crazy shit in my days painting homes.

ooooh good one...but I have read where things were not kept up...roof leaking etc so maybe no painting went on say in the last 5 years....what about the trash man??? if working on the truck you know your stopping at the place of Prince....did they go thru the trash? hmmmm....my young boy days I know I would have if I was there lol.

He just had work done in Paisley Park to the soundstage area a few months before he passed and exhibits were already in the building. So could no work have been done. Also it was said the HVAC system needed some work no one said anything was leaking.

You realized that Graceland was going to have to spend money to turn it into a musuem and meet the codes for the zoning. Same money Prince would have had to spend.

They’ve recently done some landscaping to the Audubon Road side of the building. When you do a tour you can definitely tell it’s an older building. I imagine they didn’t want to do too much to change it from when he was alive and living there. I do wonder if any parts of the upstairs will ever be added to the tours or if it will always be off limits. [Edited 7/3/17 12:29pm]

My guess is no, simply because the building would have to be ADA compliant. Which means the elevator would have to be used.
