Newsletter: Oct. 10

WHAT’S COMING TO THE BOULEY MARKET SPACE
It’s not a nail salon, a Subway franchise, or a children’s clothing shop.

ON THE CB1 AGENDAS FOR OCTOBER
Well, there’s not a whole lot of interest on the agendas, to be totally honest. White & Church is looking for later hours, and Super Linda needs a sidewalk-seating permit, and there’s some other stuff.

REAL ESTATE REPORT
Eleven sales were reported in the past week, including in the Hastings Building and Diamond Duane (which I always think sounds like a pimp).
