Denny's is out of the frame. So we get to keep Denny's to go with the 450 million dollar arena.

Conversation about: Freshii closes, reopens as Fresca Deli

So weak, Freshi was one my favorite new places. You know, where you could actually get healthy food. Agreed, that the food was great, it was the extremely slow service. It looks they will have some of the same stuff, so I will give it a shot.

I'm so bummed. Although when I went in there last week, I was actually wondering "How do these guys stay in business?"

Half these alley names read like an Onion article. Like I still don't believe they are real.

Typical nonsense, the whole cardroom brings crime thing is totally debunked and they still vote no.

Conversation about: Neighbors, developer reach agreement on contentious project

I sort of have a problem with forcing them to do pitched roofs considering the many historical examples of flat roofed buildings from the 1930's in the neighborhood. We'll see how it turns out, but design by committee rarely comes looking great. 6 units was also reasonable considering the size of the lot. - Neighborhood resident 27th and T.

Conversation about: Man on the Street: Borders stores closing – what does this mean?

in both Laguna and Davis the Borders is a huge center of action. In both cases there are maybe ten other small businesses surrounding the Borders that will be hurt. It's also going to be hard to fill retail spaces of that size in this economy. I'm sort of bummed Borders is closing.

Conversation about: Design competition to shape Capitol Mall

The massive scale is alienating as a pedestrian. I think you could reduce it to one lane per direction and bump out the sidewalk. Mandate every office building including state buildings have retail space along Capital. Build some residential units. Continue to hold more events every weekend.

I live on 27th and T. I can attest that it is indeed quiet as a mouse at night and I always find parking right in front of my house.

Conversation about: Before R Street Market Plaza development: Photo Essay

Pretty stupid to put a parking lot in such a key spot. In fact, last I heard it was going to be turned into a plaza?

Conversation about: Downtown is focus for urban design experts

Punch through 6th street. Leave the rest of the mall, but put street fronting retail with apartments above along 6th street. Put in Pedestrian overpasses for the upper level of the mall. We're spending a bazillion dollars on a 6th street Railyards bridge that is going to a street that will dead-end in 2 blocks.

You couldn't go past 19th without a bridge over the rail tracks.

What about Office Depots' roof lot? That could work.
