Awake and Aging Offers Tools for Fresh Mind Body and Spirit

Awake and Aging Offers Tools for Fresh Mind Body and Spirit

While perusing Midtown the other day I ran across this seemingly new business near Mandala Massage Supply Company. It's called Awake and Aging, and they offer everything from chakra cleansing to aromatherapy sessions, as well as offer up quite a few courses on their Facebook Page here. Check them out! They are located at 737 1/2 South Virginia.

Bernie Carter owns the building, and was converted from a crack den (a real quick den, where drugs were often delivered on mopeds) to a commercial duplex where the massage supply store and Awake and Aging are located.

Siegel Weighing Two Options for Awnings at El Cortez

So the word on the street is Siegel Group is demolishing the current awnings over the retail businesses on the first floor, and is looking at two options moving forward.

I also can't wait to see what they come up with for window options, since the Historical Resources Commission recommended they come up with window replacements that have a bit more of a historical feel than 1970s style slider windows.

The Great Midtown Parking Debate / Identity Crisis Continues

When planning significant street changes to one of Reno's most popular and dense neighborhoods, who are the primary stakeholders that should influence it? The public that frequents the neighborhood?
