Liberty & Main

Stopped. Watched. icon

Workmen slicing window slot in the brick wall. Doing cleanup around opening with a saws-all. [photo] I remember Joel Batterman – at a meeting about proposed hotel at Washington & Division – mentioning the future window-cutting work as an example of creating less austere pedestrian environments. Specific topic then was proposed plaza area on north side of hotel lot, facing Washington.

    This is at the former Occasionally Gifts, in preparation for the new Cherry Republic store, right?

    I’m kinda disappointed that these are just going to be little slot windows. I was hoping there would be a little bit larger, display type windows, which I felt would be really effective. I mean, look at selo-shevel across the street. Very visible and appealing.

    Oh, well, better than nothing I suppose.
