Only got one.

smaller tower
somehow built yet another surface parking lot downtown

basically just rearranged the surface parking from the previous configuration.

Yeah they did pull a re-arrangement there. Not sure why they bothered to keep a small surface lot, maybe visitor parking? At least we have a small victory in that the lot doesn't directly front 4th ave or have an entrance onto 4th ave.

Very surprised to see a surface lot, agree it's a small win that it's not accessed off 4th.

That is weird. If I recall correctly, the little parking lot was a point of contention at CPC a couple years back. I do much prefer the configuration of the parking, though - access via the lane with that screening feature will look a lot better than the current strip mall with parking in front. I still consider it a solid win.

Probs not news, but apparently construction will be going ahead on this one.

That’s great news. Is there a timeline of when they plan to start?

 

[UrbanWarrior]

Heck yeah. So much momentum right now!

I guess for me the sentiment of this place was that it was the first marijuana dispensary I ever went to.

Oh well.

 

[Surrealplaces]

Sentimental memories for me too. When I was about 14 years old I was buying Mac's slushee and didn't have a enough money, but a hooker lent me 50 cents so I could buy it.

I used to go to Banzai there for cheap bento boxes, that was at least 10 years ago now though. Never tried the Vietnamese place that took over the space though.

50 cents change back from ‘services rendered’? Lol

The strip mall building has been demoed.

Squeeee!! So this one could get going any time? If I understand correctly
