Swing and a miss. Another suburban-style car-oriented in a potentially walkable neighborhood.

It's a nice idea, but the coffee plant is nowhere near as attractive as the Pearl Brewery. Once you gutted the manufacturing equipment, there won't be much to look at. Razing the whole facility and redeveloping from the ground up makes the most sense.

Admittedly, I am pretty pessimistic for this specific area. The East Village project won't be directly facing the cap and cover park (which looks to start at Lamar St), and it will be losing Polk St connectivity to the GRB. It's also important to keep in mind that Klyde Warren Park was anchored on both sides by high rises, hotels, and cultural institutions. EaDo is still a lot of old warehouses with spatters of townhome farms.

It will be harder to determine exactly what the feel of the area will be after the 45 reroute. All the new bars and restaurants in this area will now be immediately facing a massive freeway. And of course everything on the other side of St.E will be demolished. The noise and visual blight may be enough to kill this part of town.

A new brewery literally a block from 8th Wonder? I'm starting to wonder how many craft breweries this city can absorb...

Someone on Nextdoor spoke with Liz Jacobs of Lovett Commercial and they were told that the Sprouts and CVS deal fell through. Looks like this side of town will continue to be a food desert.
There's still Kombat Kroger and Phoenicia in close distance. Not exactly a food desert.

$1.3 million seems like a lot of money to build out a restaurant space. Can any industry people comment?

I'm glad you like the place. The developers seemed to do a first rate job on it.
does the train blow its whistle at night?
Not that often. Though it might be more and I might just be sleeping through them.

I moved last month and have really been digging it. They did a great job renovating the building. The train can be pretty loud but I've lived in a few different places in the East End and have always lived close to the train tracks. I don't really mind it.

I know I'm feeding the troll here, but the sandwiches and pizzas are pretty legit at Sundance; it's not just popcorn and milkduds.

Any information on this neighborhood center anywhere?? This is the first I'm hearing of it.

I'm really excited about this project. The price seems really fair for new development. I think the key will be the commercial space next door. Hopefully they can have a cool coffee shop or restaurant. The only thing holding them back is the specific location. It's still too industrial with not enough places to walk to.

I'd probably just try to sell to Ancorian or whoever owns the building now.
