Downtown Openings and Closings.

Actually the News here, is that there IS no news.

Here we are, almost to the end of January, and as far as I can tell, no one has closed or opened.

If ever there was a time that someone would throw in the towel, you'd think it would be after Christmas, and before the long dry six month spell between mid-January and mid-June.

But I've noticed before there isn't much of a 1/1 correlation; probably having more to do with the terms of leases and such.

Anyway, No News Is Good News.

Children's Museum left. Don't know when, but I had free passes and I went yesterday only to find they are gone for good.

Might have got pushed out by Bouncing of the Walls... which I think is kind of lame. Not as much learning or role-playing.

Thanks, Leit.

I'm sticking strictly to downtown, and the downtown core at that. I believe, officially, Greenwood and Franklin count all the way to the tracks but I don't go that far.

Heard anything about Chao Mambo?

Heard from Craig's List, which has to be the unreliable source in existence...

My friends just went to Chao Mambo last week... and that's all I've heard.

I thought the old Mill was the New downtown?
