Out with the old

Sometimes it is a good thing to be out with the old. That is, when it has been an abandoned building for quite a long time. Yet, I am certain many people have fond memories of dance parties, weddings, or quinceneras at the Santa Rita Ballroom.

Walking past this site I wonder: what is in store for the Southwest corner of Broadway and 6th Avenue?

The old Poca Cosa is still there at the foot of the Santa Rita Hotel. That, I thought, was slated to be renovated and reopened as a boutique hotel. Hmmmm.

It's kind of exciting when things start happening after so many promises that came to nothing.

The corner west of there at Scott is looking really good. The Ribbon Cutting event for the new South Scott Avenue is tonight. The party centers on the corner of Corral and Scott at 6:30 with refreshments and music.
