I hope it is the green one where an architecture used to live. it is a great little space and I would hate to see it go.

Glad to see that since it is a short walk from home, but I see a restaurant having a tough time there. There isn't any parking unless they have an agreement with the dry cleaner next door to allow parking.

The one right at the corner of the triangle it seems. And they are adding a parking lot

Where? Even if they used every square inch of that area to create a parking lot, they'd be able to fit maybe 4-5 cars.

convert existing building to a restaurant. A small parking lot will be constructed on 08021113 and 08021114

 

Yeah not sure, can't imagine it being too big though.

Maybe they hope to have a deal like Pinky's on W. Morehead with a walk-to lot nearby. (somewhere)

She should name it Buena Comida. Wonder if Good Food on Montford would get pissed?

The Workman's Friend got a social media presence.....I love their branding, not so much the name, but the logo and stuff is great.

I saw this on Facebook and I sadly love it...but can we change the name of this thread to "Pizza Midwood Projects"?

As seen on LinkedIn, an update on Morningside:

I like the stoops along Morningside and the ally running behind this, though unfortunately it looks like there are still mid-block curb cuts on McCormack.

You all most likely have seen this, but new eatery in the Penguin spot will be called "Comida." I must say, the name is a bit underwhelming (but all-encompassing for Central and South American style food).  

 

And, isn't Plaza Midwood already a destination?  The new owner wants to turn it into one...I hope she is meaning from a regional/national perspective...as locally it already is a destination spot.

 

All in all glad to have the new restaurant and I love Mexican--was just looking for more out of the creator of Little Spoon.

I thought Van Landingham was supposed to be on the agenda yesterday, what's the latest?

Nichols Co is proposing replacing Todd's Flowers with an office building, which I believe will be pushed close to the street with parking in the rear.  Unclear, if they plan on including their former office building in the development (the grey 2 story house at the corner of Central and Hawthorne)
