Progress continues along 6th and 7th avenue.

That former dusty empty gas station on 6^th (the last time it was open premium was $2.92 a gallon) has opened and become the 6^th Ave. Grocery.

It’s looking like the former Fire House #22 will be ready long before the Walgreen that caused its transformation to start in the first place is even close to opening.

The former (and future?) Golden Rule it going through even more changes.

I also note that a section of building that has been empty for years, set between an equipment rental place and a collection of seemingly abandoned cars, had the lights on for the first time that I’ve ever seen, with refurbishing going on inside. Now if they could just get rid of some of those rusty hulks littering the auto place they’ll be cooking with spam.

It looks like the Tinroof restaurant, its water main problems fixed, will be opening soon. I see they have moved in some pool tables.

While at the same time the condos on 7^th progress… though I have to think all that pounding they are doing this stage can’t be doing the lunch time business much good!
