Downtown Makeover News

New retail permits have been pulled for Sticks and 777 Center.

I set out to photograph what's new, good and different in Midtown and Wells Avenue.

Check out a photo tour of 1401 Midtown from the inside out, and see why Bristlecone Holdings will have the newest 'it' office in the city.

I spotted some work going on at the former location of Penny's Midtown Merchantile, at 675 South Virginia next to Sup. 

Transcend Interiors Showroom Coming to Midtown, according to signs in a long-vacant retail space at Sticks in Midtown.

Check out renderings for a new mixed-use development planned for 1039 South Virginia Street.

677 South Virginia, the building that was home to Classic Skate Shop and currently Ace Tattoo, will soon be rehabbed by Origin 8 Architecture, and be reconfigured to house three businesses, as part of the Sticks project. 

Sierra Belle to hold official grand opening this Saturday in the Stick project in Midtown at 726 South Virginia Street. 

A company out of Irvine California called 'Medifarm' just closed escrow on the Scotland Yard Spy Shop building at 1085 South Virginia for $1.2 million. The Scotland Yard spy shop dude then bought the building across the street, 1092 South Virginia Street for half that price. Hopefully he is moving his spy shop over there. That's a cool shop.

Medifarm is associated medical marijuana dispensaries in California and looks to be opening up shop in Nevada in both Las Vegas and Reno.

I had heard a rumor before that a medical marijuana dispensary was looking to open in that building, looks like it's not a rumor anymore!

Midtown will be getting a medical dispensary soon.
