So, just to recap the storefront situation on the main block of Osborne (between River and Stradbrook):

97 Osborne St (old Into the Music): Still vacant.

100 Osborne St #107 (old Village Beauty Hub): Renovations are ongoing. I peaked in today and it looks like they're painting and doing millwork right now. The building permit posted in the window says it will be a "take-out dessert/coffee shop."

106 Osborne St (old Unique Bunny): There's a sign saying it's been leased. Hopefully something new will move in soon.

109 Osborne St (old Shop Take Care): Still vacant.

111 Osborne St (Small Mercies): It looks like they're getting close to reopening. Been seeing lots of activity inside recently.

120 Osborne St (old Tweed): Still vacant.

133 Osborne St (old Basil's): Under renovation. Lots of work happening there lately. Stud walls are in and rough-ins are being done now. Will be Welcome To Shirley's when renovations are done (looks like a cocktail bar).

135 Osborne St (old Basil's): Under renovation (same as above). Will be a gourmet grocery store called Made By Paste when renovations are done.

So in summary, there will be 5 new businesses opening soon and 3 storefronts that will still be vacant.

Hopefully I got that all correct. Let me know if I made any mistakes.

I wonder if there is something structurally wrong with Into the Music. It's been vacant for what, 5-6 years?

^ it was being renovated into a dentist office. Not sure why it stopped.

One side of the old Basil's will be a small bar called Shirley's, and the other side will be a small restaurant called Baby Baby.

Small Mercies has hinted on their Instagram that they should reopen in May, I believe.

Also noticed a liquor license notice at the old Basil's. Looks like the company is called "Shirley's Restaurant and Gourmet Grocery Inc." So it might be a two-in-one restaurant and grocery store. I'm guessing the gourmet grocery component is the "Made By Paste" small business that other people have mentioned in this thread.
