I was really excited and a bit nervous when I saw the bulldozers and dumptrucks begin to make themselves at home so close to where I live. Excited because I thought, yippee we’re going to be getting some new potential retail/restaurant establishments just around the corner, but nervous because you never know who’s going to be moving in. My husband and I shared our dreams of a local coffee shop, dry cleaning business, a place or two to stop in for lunch or dinner and a couple of boutiques to be able to run in for the occasional spur of the moment gift.
I was very pleased when the Brodie Park Market, a high-end store that sells everything from deli sandwiches to wine, and Nanami, a sushi restaurant, opened their doors this month. After reading the article in the Community Impact (link below), my fears were put to rest.
There is still quite a bit of lease space available, but with the opening of the great stores, I feel it can only enhance living in South Austin.
