Is Riverside/Avondale Ready For Mellow Mushroom?

[InnerCityPressure]

 

When you say you could not find a space within how many blocks are you talking? Even at peak hours has anyone in Riverside ever had to walk more than a block or two to the door they wanted to enter? If they have it would be extremely rare.

That reminds me of hearing my brother in law complain about Jacksonville parking.  He was so mad that the lot at Olive Garden was so full that he had to park next door at Arby's and walk over.  I told my wife it was a hilarious picture of Jacksonville compared to DC, where we lived at the time.  It was just charming enough to convince us to move

I tried to go to MELLOW MUSHROOM last weekend in Ashville NC... I could not find a parking place..
Look for the same parking problems if MM ever gets off the ground...

I'm confused.

I think Dennis is a relative of North Miami, who trolls this thread and makes absurd comments. His posting history is made up entirely of posts related to MM. Just let him troll though and be on his way. Do not engage him and DO NOT encourage him.

From his posts alone, I'd say he's a troll. However, check out that signature line. Its is either extreeeeeeme ironic delusion, or his entire existence is some meta commentary on forum use or even how we are living our lives in general. Dennis may be the greatest mind on these forums, but that begs the question does he and do we even exist?

At this rate the one at RCMP will be open before the one in Avondale

Y'all are assuming there will be parking problems. There might be some Friday and Saturday. But would you rather have an empty building or a thriving business?  Would you rather have a pizza to walk to or an empty building?

As I recall from Mid Town Atlanta the MM wasn't a parking problem mid day.  I never had any trouble getting my mail from next door. I thought the pizza was average and the prices high but that's just me.  It seems yuppie enough for Avondale. Let it come. Quit complaining .............

Meeting tonight at 7:00 PM at Grace Church, corner of Herschel and Edgewood to discuss parking and growth in the Avondale area.

Mellow Mushroom will eliminate about 15 parking spaces around the service station building that now serve the area, and, natch, create a need for many more spaces. The only place the cars can go is into the surrounding residential streets. I'm a few blocks away and hopefully insulated from having to wake up on a Saturday or Sunday morning and move Bud Light beer cans, cigarette filters, and other rubbish from the street, but those living closer to the Shoppes can expect that on a regular basis.

Most of the restaurants and shops in the Shoppes are small storefronts, and I for one would prefer to keep it that way. Mellow, another growing chain operation with low to medium priced food, will be large, and will attract a class of diners less inclined to concern themselves with finding an appropriate place to discard their rubbish.

That's my biased opinion. What's yours?

Discarding rubbish has been a challenging job where there are plenty of shops in small area.. We do need better management..

What does this mean?

Dont be.  The psychic connection between ashville and avondale is well known.  In fact, Im surprised you didnt already know.  Its called Quantum Entanglement.

Know Growth reply:
In Fact, any connection to Avondale and points north point decidedly includes well beyond Ashville,on up to points Northeast,West (Mid).

it's called Dialytical TriNaxis of the Fourth Furbim. Don't forget the Capitol N. North ' erly. Skip Miami- our Mortal Enemy.

So here we see how a thread deservedly crashes.
