Thought we had another thread on this but apparently not. Looks like Southern Grounds is going to anchor this spot at Riverside and Forest:

Glad to see this one moving forward. I wonder what's the hold up on the Skyway?

Not as cool as "The Hub" on 30A, but a good start for the area.

couldn't find the more recent thread, but... construction has finally started on this. Port-o-potties are on site, and dirt is moving.

Like a phoenix, good to see after the long wait.

Looking good! Also drove on the new Park Street segment. Like it. Wish they added dedicated bike lanes, but it is a pretty narrow street. Not sure what I think about the little roundabouts. It works, but strange.

I drove it the yesterday, and concur.  When I saw the first round-about-ahead sign, not seeing a raised center island, I thought someone screwed up. But, there it was - a tiny slightly raised circle in the middle.

I thought bike lanes were part of the reason for the rebuild... silly me!  Maybe due to its proximity to the Emerald Trail, they thought they could leave that out?

The Park St project added a shared use pathway for bikes and pedestrians. From what I can see it's already well in use. There's going to be a lot of private development on this stretch now that it's done.
Do you believe that when the blue jay or another bird sings and the body is trembling, that is a signal that people are coming or something important is about to happen?

was curious if Lenox on Park? and Block Nine were waiting for completion.
