Congrats on 2000!

I don't think it is EADS as they are currently in DC (for their lobbying needs), however I do think they have maybe a supplier "in mind" (perhaps the North American HQ of a major parts supplier?)

134-unit apartment complex proposed at former Old Shell Road School

http://classic.lagniappemobile.com/article.asp?articleID=5967&sid=1

^^^ I think this would be a good development if done right.

Agreed, presuming they effectively clear the hurdles presented I think it could be great for that area.

Funding sought to clean up old City Hall North in Mobile

I think this ugly little eye sore should be converted into an apartment complex.

Electrical Porpoise · #**5645** Posted **Nov 23, 2012, 10:55 PM**

Really dont want that apt. complex at all. They can classify it however they want to, but I doubt it will bring great foot traffic to one of the more stable mid-town neighborhoods we have.

Keeps getting pushed back but it should be open by Christmas is what I'm told. Also Bojangles bar is opening next Friday with a pretty large new menu.

Nice! What a great addition to the downtown restaurant scene.

eshore78 · #**5648** Posted **Dec 6, 2012, 3:49 PM**

.. on Thursday.

County spokesperson Nancy Johnson said the announcement will have a "countywide impact," though other details were not available.

Certainly great news... getting the first supplier to set up shop in Mobile keeps the momentum for us going forward as well.

We should start hearing of more supplier announcements over the next 6-12 months.

I actually just started watching it recently on Netflix. At first, I thought it was going to be some stereotypical show, but so far I've been impressed with how fair it is. I know there have been some outlets saying it's "potentially offense to the South", I guess maybe I'm just used to TV shows that do paint a negative picture of us; it's all relative.

I've yet to see any shots of Mobile, though. I'm guessing they show up in more recent episodes; I'm only on episode 13.

I'm not from Mobile, but thanx anyway!

Thanks ! I wish it was bigger but I think it fits an area of just over 600K.

Port_of_Bama · #**5654** Posted **Dec 23, 2012, 7:43 PM**

Sorry about the double post but I see progress in the Moes bbq building downtown.

Empire state of mind · #**5655** Posted **Dec 24, 2012, 9:46 PM**

I was in Mobile over the weekend and saw the dt skyline lit up at night. It's nice for a mid sized city. I must say I've never seen a mid sized look that good. Pat yourself on the back, because whom ever you've voted in has done, our did a great job to your success. Enjoy your Christmas.

eshore78 · #**5656** Posted **Jan 2, 2013, 6:26 PM**

Moe's will open Tuesday the 8th as the new home of 92Zew's 2nd Tuesday concert series with a show from Grayson Capps and The Lost Cause Minstrels.. Loda Bier Garten opened on New Years Eve, which I don't think was a good idea but at least it's open. Also Fairhope Brewing Company opens this coming Sunday the 6th.

elb401 · #**5657** Posted **Jan 3, 2013, 9:00 PM**

Great News! I can't wait. I love Moe's BBQ.

eshore78 · #**5658** Posted **Jan 4, 2013, 12:32 AM**

Moe's will open Saturday at 11am. Can't wait to tear up them wings. Best wings around IMO.

Great news! I will visit early and often...

eshore78 · #**5660** Posted **Jan 6, 2013, 7:47 PM**

Moe's was great. Really gonna become a hot spot for downtown. The music venue is going to be awesome. Really did it up right in there.

That part of Dauphin needs a nickname.. Don't think 'the other end of Dauphin' has a good ring to it.
