@JFW657 thanks. Beats a 7-11 and a laundry mat.

Talk about an upgrade. Bravo

Wow, that is an improvement.  Cheers to the owners of that lot and building back there.  Really brings the space up another level.

Grilled Cheezus has opened in the old Funky Monkey space on Mills. Scott J liked it (although there was a bit of a wait). 

I really want to try the Yo! Adrian, a beefy grilled cheese take, ostensibly on a Philly cheesesteak.

Scott also notes there’s a location at UCF Downtown in the Not-Very-Creative-Village.

Another update:

I forgot, is this an apartment or an office building?

I thought medical but WAH is changing the landscape pretty quickly.

What happened to the World's Largest Board?

“It’s leaning against a warehouse in an industrial park off Silver Star Road. That’s where Mills & Nebraska, a building materials company, moved 13 years ago.”

Credo’s the replacement for Tropical Smoothie at the Downtown Y but we’ve been wondering if that’s a bit odd for a fitness place.

Wonder no more, Credo’s adding food to their Y offerings. The space is also getting an upgrade to the furnishings.

Just more of the usual crapitecture, though.
