So as a Grubb Volvo client it has been hard to see the work for a while even though it was going hot and heavy for at least 6 months, but finally this week you can now see inside and obviously outside and its really well done. They are truly showcasing an old building and doing some awesome work.

Yeah this is awesome to see

Additional renderings of Maven / Maven Coffee Co. are below. The renderings are from Design Group.
Maven's location at Silver Street Studios is a coffee shop by day. At night, it transforms into a bar. Maven is part of the Sawyer Yards development. The address for the coffee shop and bar is 1501 Silver St, Building B.

I do hope and I think its very possible that bike and pedestrian access around white oak and this development will continue to ramp up. Every day it gets a bit better and I am super optimistic about the future.

So freaking excited about this. Also, denying a liquor license to a business on White Oak is silly - it’s a dang bar and restaurant district now. Hoping the opposition has calmed a bit.

I am so happy this park is getting some much needed love. Such a great space.

Very excited for this - love me some Boomtown and Ten Fold but I think more is better!

Be More Pacific is not remotely Chinese, and Heights Asian Cafe is kind of old-school Americanized Chinese and Vietnamese. Rice Box is also doing its own thing.
So that just leaves Mala on your list, and, I don't know man, I think the greater Heights can handle *two* sichuan restaurants.
Well said!

I am so excited for this development!

I generally agree and the funny thing is that everyone was afraid that redevelopment of the farmers market would scare off the existing vendors and their lower income customers in favor of more high income customers and vendors. But the existing vendors seem to be doing very well and seem to be benefiting from the much improved parking and facilities while the higher end part of the development has not been very successful. I think there is still a lot of room for growth on the restaurant/retail side. Wild Oats and Underbelly burger are great, but the burger restaurant was closing at 6 everyday (looks like they are finally extending hours) and a limited seating higher end table service restaurant isn't going to drive in enough foot traffic to extend hours on the retail spaces. If this taqueria is more fast casual that can draw in good crowds, then foot traffic will improve and help the building side a lot.
Totally agree - I think this place needs a coffee shop and maybe a wine shop with a bigger focus on attracting families - similar to Stomping Grounds. I think there is so much potential here and it will eventually find a groove. Sunset Heights is just becoming super young family oriented and I think this spot needs to embrace it.

What a tragic use of the land.

Supreme Gumbo closed its first stand-alone restaurant this week. Located in the Heights area, the eatery was operated at 1040 W Calvacade St.Wish I could say this was a bummer but everything that has been at this spot has been less than good and the build outs of the space have been tragic. Hoping someone with a bit more experience and polish can get this land and do something of value with it.

This is an ongoing problem with many failed restaurants and small businesses. They don't advertise.
They think posting a picture on Instagram is advertising. It's not. Social media is a useful supplement, but it's not the same thing.
It happens to me all the time that I learn about an interesting restaurant by word-of-mouth, only to find out when I try to visit that it's out of business.
I loved Revival so much but the quality and food was never good when the new owners took over and made this concept. Its a shame as its a great location.

The social accounts are up and running for the spot - https://www.instagram.com/goldtoothtonys/?hl=en

This is legit great news. I love that the Heights has gotten some AWESOME Za in the last few years. No one here should be sleeping on Gold Tooth Tony's, Gypsy Poet, and Zalat - in addition to the longer standing old faithful like Pinks
