Navigation Place: Retail Center At 2929 Navigation Blvd.
Several more sign permits were purchased yesterday for Jonathan's the Rub at 2929 Navigation Blvd, Suite 200. The restaurant is located in Navigation Place. Signs electrical installation permit Sign construction permit Sign operating permit Details from the permits: Use: N3 Ilum 1fc 49x6x22 Steaks, Seafood, Etc. | Jonathan's the Rub; N3 Ilum 1f 38x7x22 Jonathan's the Rub Cocktails, Etc. Etc. Etc. FCC Group: High technology sign It appears the permits pertain to the restaurant's outside signage. Jonathan's the Rub looks like it may open soon. If I had to guess, I'm assuming it may be looking to open next month or early June at the latest. A few week's ago, the restaurant had its pre-opening inspection with the health department. There are also hiring posts for waitstaff. All are usually signs that points to a business nearing its debut. Signs electrical installation permit Sign construction permit Sign operating permit -

10 And Heights: Mixed-Use At 1515 Studemont St.
Oh, it's you again. Hi, @Ross. I see someone's cranky again. Why don't you have a Snickers? How strange that you continue to have a problem with everything I post. Yet, somehow you don't direct that same rude and nasty energy you have for me towards ALL the other members who do and post the same things? Hmm... I wonder why? I notice when other people post multiple permits posts, as @hindesky does as often as I do, you don't have a problem. But here you are being rude when I do it. I post different zoom level of Google Maps screenshots in one post when I create a topic, that gets your dusty undies in a bunch. However, when @hindesky posts the same maps, same diagrams, same renderings from each planning commission meeting over and over again, there's not a single peep from you. No posts about how annoying it is of him to post the same exact things over and over. No old man griping at all. But me? I'm a problem for you. I post a rendering, you complain that I didn't get permission to post it. Then you proceed to gripe about me posting said rendering to Imgur instead of linking to it. Yet, when other members like @Urbannizer, @ChannelTwoNews, @Paco Jones, @hindesky, and others do the very same thing, there's no rude commentary from you. Nothing from you about how they didn't receive permission to post renderings. It's hypocritical of you. Worse, it's becoming borderline harassment. It's also becoming crystal clear to me that anything I do, you take an issue. To heck with others who do the same thing - or post the same amount. They're A-okay with you. But l do the same, and here you go... Guess what? Oh well that I and the things I post are annoying to you. You annoy me too, but you don't see me quoting your annoying posts and then proceeding to rant about you being an annoyance (this post excluded, obviously?). So, if you don't like what I contribute, you're free to keep it moving to the next post. Better yet? The forum provides a block option. Utilize it and add me to your block list. Problem solved. But what I won't keep doing is derailing topics by going back and forth with you.- identity architects
