We really need to take advantage of the momentum caused by TJ's as a catalyst to turning this entire corner around. Maybe this will cause Yang's and Bongo Room to actually plant some plants/flowers/anything in the planters along Roosevelt just east of the eL entrance.

Nothing against street art, but this attitude makes me sad. I was telling the wife the other day when we noticed the scaffolding, even if all they were doing was a better job of boarding the place up, it would still be a big improvement.Dave Kernhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00158485133103779918noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1167519580792566980.post-35922639063578828812011-08-16T10:51:30.043-05:002011-08-16T10:51:30.043-05:00Five Guys is the most overrated burger joint aroun...Five Guys is the most overrated burger joint around, let's keep the street art around until something more original comes about.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1167519580792566980.post-86008587930695064772011-08-16T10:30:35.980-05:002011-08-16T10:30:35.980-05:00is there a way you can post a higher resolution im...is there a way you can post a higher resolution image of that floor plan? i think it might have some hints about what it is,Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1167519580792566980.post-47313517506495247502011-08-16T10:25:41.824-05:002011-08-16T10:25:41.824-05:00Five Guys are not moving into the space.
