i saw construction work on the SE corner of high and SE 44th street today.
from a glance i calculate 2000-3000 SQF footprint.
the buy-for-less closed but got replaced by another super market
with a really awful sign mounted over the old buy-for-less sign. there is another
store just across the street called C-imports (don't know what it is) that just built a small
addition adjacent to their main building which means they're probably doing okay.
also noticed brand new sidewalks along 44th and transversal streets like shields and santa fe.
i think on-cue hit a home run with its gas station on shields and 44 and i'm not sure if the
7-11 across the street will be able to compete against it in the years ahead.
finally, i couldn't help to notice and compare the car traffic and commercial activity along 44th street
to that of SW 29th. the traffic is really heavy and there's even high levels of pedestrians and cyclists.
the really bad thing i noticed with this street, and SW 29th also; is that the traffic is always made worse
by train crossings, especially during peak hours. the city should DEFINITELY put in its agenda at least one
overpass bridge or tunnel for either 44th or 29th street to deal with that annoying train track crossing,
but traffic can be so bad at times that maybe they should do both.
