PJs Coffee is going in at Welsh and Harvey Mitchell, I believe this location was a Popeye's or other fried chicken chain at some point.

It's PJs. I found it. Not sure I've had it.


Sorry, it is PJ's from the earlier post. My fault

Laugh all you want, but with the makeup of our demographics being skewed with the very young college age folks and the retirement hotbed for old Aggies, IMHO, that lessens the need for a ME in Brazos County.

$1550 per SF. Ultimate OPM. Probably 500-600 per SF more than a new hospital.
Just wait until we get a sky bridge over 29th St to connect it to Jesse's for taco runs.


Just wait until a dumpster rolloff truck hits it going 45…

I have no idea of the ME needs for Brazos County. However, old people tend to die eventually and if they die at home rather than in a hospital, they likely need an ME.

I'd guess the ME would probably also take cases from the surrounding counties that are also currently sending to Austin/Houston.

If you're past a certain age, and you pass away at your home or one of the plethora of retirement communities, an autopsy isn't needed.

That would be my hope, that the contracts from surrounding small counties would offset the expense, but money moves by Judge Duane doesn't give me very much confidence in that.

Depends on circumstances, how long until someone finds you, if you were regularly seeing a doctor who will sign your death certificate, etc.

The Travis county office is stupid busy all the time and constantly runs with a backlog of cases. I don't trust ol Duane at all but this isn't going to be a waste.

And yes, it will serve a 100 mile radius around Brazos county.

Agree with this. B/CS are adults now. Time to grow up, kids. That doesn't excuse poor elected officials like Peters, but this is something that is needed in this region. We need to stop being the wart of Austin, Waco/Temple/Killen, or Houston depending on the service/industry.

Old folks dying at home almost never have autopsies performed unless they have a stab or gunshot wound in them.

That was exactly my point, but the ME fans are all whipped up into a frenzy. Who cares? It's just the people young enough to not have their taxes frozen's money!

105.00 a foot
and the new ME building is 1500 a foot

interesting how private money gets a great bang for their buck, but OPM seems to get ripped off via the county

"If you will not fight for right when you can easily win without blood shed; if you will not fight when your victory is sure and not too costly; you may come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a precarious chance of survival. There may even be a worse case. You may have to fight when there is no hope of victory, because it is better to perish than to live as slaves." - Sir Winston Churchill

Well that stinks. While I don't go there often, they did have a really nice selection of things. But sadly they were also priced much higher than other places, especially if you planned ahead of time and ordered on Amazon. I hope the employees can find work asap.

Not sure if this has been mentioned but Kay's Jeweler is coming to the shopping center where Kohl's is located. There is a coming soon sign between Nothing Bundt Cakes and Home Goods.

We seem to be in a wave of Indian restaurants opening here. Not a complaint, just curious what's driving it.

That location isn't good. You can only enter from the north and exit to the south, and sometimes even that is difficult.

Vietnoodles Pho and More is 'coming soon' to the location where King Noodle and Sushi was (in the strip between Outback and Walgreens).
