House History
CZ once had this awesome, but crazy, girl living there. She lit a bonfire in a bathtub up on the roof and Central Office kicked her out.
In 1999 crazy tweakers lived at CZ and smoked lots of speed. Also they blew speed smoke into the face of a cat, belonging to the house manager who was also a pregger. Shortly thereafter, the cat gave birth to tweaker kittens that twitched a lot and scratched innocent people who weren't doing shit but sitting around smoking speed.
