Hill Street Grill Rebrand

The Hill Street Grill is going through a major rebranding process. The quaint little restaurant located on Hill Street located a block west of Old Granite Street Eatery is in the midst of a major makeover. The restaurant has new partners, including two longtime former Charlie Palmerites Joel Giandalia and James Bukowski, plus a new chef, David Stern. With a new menu and name in the works as well, keep an eye on the corner of Ridge and Hill Streets, lots of good things happening.

Food Truck Friday

Food Truck Friday is tomorrow! Join all your favorite food trucks at the corner of 4th and Center Streets for an evening of family fun including the Tumblebus for the kids, your fave food trucks including GourMelt, DishTruck, Sauce Wagon and more. The fun starts at 6pm, get there early to avoid the lines!

Food Truck Fridays

The Montage

The Montage has closed on its second penthouse sale with another one in escrow, which would make three penthouse sales. The 'Tage has now sold 161 units and more and more people move back to the center of the city.

Liberty Street RAPID Station

The Liberty Street RAPID station in front of the Nevada Discovery Museum on Center Street is looking good!

South Center Station Landscaping Complete

The South Center Street RAPID station across the street from Junkee's shows off its new drought-tolerant landscaping. While some might have preferred the large circular flower bed that was once here surrounded by grass, the new landscaping is more appropriate for the region.

New Dollar Store for West of Wells

Just south of Holcomb and Burns, and odd little renovation project has been going on. What used to be a code-nightmare 4-plex is being converted into a small neighborhood dollar store that won't be selling packaged liquor or crack pipes. Yay! No crack pipes is always a bonus. The store is being described to me as a 'true convenience store for the neighborhood, selling various items for the home.'

New Stewart Street Duplex Gets Landscaping

The multi-colored fence is an interesting Arts & Crafts touch, and I like the metal accent grid on the structure. The two units have true lofts and super tall living room ceilings that stretch up two floors.

    Do you know what's going in on the corner of S. Virginia and Caliente? They've installed a fantastic reclaimed wood exterior and a great vintage arrow light.

    I believe this months edition of Food Truck Fridays has extended hours to begin at 5PM.

    Bowl restaurant is not serving lunch anymore? And what's with the big "restaurant for lease" sign doing up on Men Weilding Fire?

    Is this another set of new partners on top of the folks who just bought it from Nigel whoever (the previous owner who took to attacking patrons on yelp and generally embarrassing himself)? If so, that's a fast turnover... and not a good sign. This will now be the 4th iteration of something in that spot... not good.

    Both Bowl and Men Wielding Fire are alive and well! I think the for lease sign you are talking about is on the building that was to become the sales office for the long-defunct Waterfront Towers project. Men Wielding Fire has a big sign pretty close to that for-lease sign...in any case Men Wielding Fire is still open. I haven't been to Bowl in a month or so, but my neighbors just ate there yesterday after river rafting and had a great experience (they said the rabbit is to die for)

    this reminds me... I have to go get myself a brisket sandwich an Men Wielding Fire very very soon!
