Two 819 sq. ft commecial spaces, one on each corner. I'm thinking coffee shop and convenience store.

Where's the decorative metal screen going?

So are they calling this Galleria Phase 2? I hope they have better luck excavating this pit. Note to self: do not park a car near there while they are digging ;)

Hehehe...

Or maybe, if you're looking to get a new car, parking near here could be an option :hmmm:
