News yesterday came out that a restauranteur (Claude Jones) is looking to open up a new BBQ place right across the street.

I wonder if he knows anything or if it's just something else. Anyway, should be interesting to hear who actually bought it (a company in the John Hancock is on the deal, but there's still that "power couple" angle to it).
I know Claude Jones is part of the deal for a fact. I heard Steve Nash (BB player) might be involved as well as Jones is a personal friend of his. This is all one big project from what I've heard.
