I saw that, but don't think it's possible with the location of the building on the lot, unless they completely tear up the footprint and reconstruct. Maybe that's just a parking space for some reason.

I think their business model always incorporates a drive-thru lane, so I assume they've found a way to make it happen.

The gas station is going to be torn down completely, the building there is nothing like the rendering.

If that's true (complete tear down) or partially true (major reconstruction to add drive thru), my original post wondering about the status of environmental remediation work stands. I would think they'd need to do a lot of clean up work to change the use to what is planned/shown, if it's not already been done.

I don't really care about the drive-thru, just that it didn't look possible based on existing building footprint. But they could reconstruct to add one. I can guarantee you one thing though, the Coronado neighborhood "activists" will throw a shit fit about the drive thru, and other things about the plan probably.

I personally hope this goes through as well as the Country Club condo building.

remediation isnt too bad, gotta dig up the tanks and do some soil treatment but its not crazy.

I agree though seems expensive to do when the could locate at another parcel nearby for cheaper, maybe they wanted a prominent corner?

The tanks were taken out a few years back, and I believe the land owner did some of that maintenance in the past.

Anyone know if Nanaya is still going into the bottom of Hilton Garden Inn? There's no signage, nothing online, and it doesn't seem like any work is being done inside.

I was wondering the same thing. There was a pending liquor license sign, but I noticed it was gone when I walked by yesterday.

It means their rent went up and the landlord not working with them was actually the landlord saying something to the effect of "well then leave, there's a line of people wanting to pay for it"

Very happy to announce that the old Spoke and Wheel building will become Little O's, a smaller version of O.H.S.O. Brewery. They have a location on 7th Ave and McDowell that we have really enjoyed. Some time wishes come true, friends. I think I posted here about hoping this happens.

I did not have anything to do with it.

The Little O's at 7th Ave and McDowell has a problem with inadequate parking. It will only get worse when Roses By The Stairs opens in the Burt Easley's building.
