Agreed. They should go all in on trying to get a Trader Joe's or Sprouts as well.

I see oldham Goodwin is advertising 6 months free rent on some properties for new tenants. Probably gives an indication on how things are going.

Got an email today that Silly Monsters (formerly known as Little Land Play Gym) is closing because of COVID-19.

Anyone know what's happening at the former Los Nortenos in downtown Bryan? Looks like they gutted the place.

Red Lobster is gone forever? I rarely are there (no really I didn't) but my parents and aunts/uncles did. There's a For Rent sign outside.

If their ads match the food, I would think it would be successful but way more expensive. They show massive shrimp and then you go and it is salad shrimp.

We hear that it's a children's boutique. TBF.. it's a HUGE area for just a children's boutique, so there's probably something else going in there.

I saw that a former restaurant owner may be getting back into the business. More info coming I guess.

CharlieMac may know more about it.

What about the old Fox and Hound location? I drove by the other day, and it looked like it was getting a big refurbishment.

Good sign (I hope?) that so many are taking a chance and opening new places.

Looks like some kind of vintage store is moving in at the old MacResource building on Texas Ave. I couldn't quite catch the name when I drove by, just the "vintage store" now painted on the windows, and a few items outside.


The Vintage Circle is what I saw when we drove past today.

It doesn't even look like the same space.

I think that's the backside, not the front which we all know and miss.

Imagine the years of grease that had to be removed. That was not an easy task!

All those poor cockroaches being evicted from their home.

That's the Main Street side. The parallel parking and Carnegie Alley in the background give it away.

Hopefully they find a way to sleep while they wait to see if their homes still exist in a couple days

I grew up in beaumont, lived through several hurricane s, had a house destroyed by Rita. ALL of my family still Ives in the area and I have several relatives staying at hotels in BCS and cousins in my home right now. So, spare me a lecture.

Hurricanes are horrible things and I'm hoping the storm moves quickly with minimal damage. I wish they weren't having to be here, but there is a silver lining in that hopefully small business owners that have been absolutely crushed the past 6 months can serve these people. Sorry if that offends you.

Does anyone know if Drew's car wash is still going to open up in Bryan on Texas Ave. close to HEB? I was looking forward to a new car wash to try.

As a south College Station resident and fan of their spicy chicken sandwich this makes me happy!

Looks like it will be near the OLD Kroger at Texas/SW Pkwy (now TruFit). The old JITB building is near the Kroger on Rock Prairie Rd.
