    I hope CD Warehouse stays there. People might consider a record store the ultimate underutilized space (that and maybe a pizza parlor) but it is still decent retail that's built up proven longevity in downtown.

    It sure beats Pot shops and tatoo parlors.

  4. Default Re: Changes on Automobile Alley

    Yeah. We're loosing CD Warehouse and at the same time we've got enough tattoo parlors popping up everywhere.

    Pot shops? You mean like marijuana dispensaries? I think those would be pretty cool, actually.

    On that note, an ABC/Post poll yesterday showed 81 percent national support for medical maryjane, and more than 50 percent for legalization.

    And it appears that voters in the state of Washington support legalization and sales of pot in liquor stores.

    Is anyone else surprised how quickly the public opinion is shifting on this issue?

    I'm with you guru. I used to be vehemently opposed as well. Case in point..

    Still, the odds of that happening in Oklahoma in my lifetime, 0 percent.

    Another update for Automobile Alley is that Ghost Advertising ghost / 405 605 8147 / contact@ghostadv.com is moving from Paseo into the Vesper building on Broadway next month.

    Good. That space in Paseo could be used for something else more beneficial to the public.

    The furniture store is Rawhide, formerly on Main St. in Norman. It's a very upscale Western-themed furniture store. Not my bag at all but it is a nice boutique.

    Kind of like the former Lorec Ranch.

    It's better than Lorec Ranch, IMO.

  18. Default Re: Changes on Automobile Alley

    I was talking to someone and heard this week, went by Coffee Slingers...still a ways out from opening in my opinion.

    I heard names dropped of several other openings on A-Alley..forget them all sadly. Anyone know?

    Yes, smells of rich mahogany and leather bound books eminate from storefronts lining the AA. It's kind of a big deal.

    I don't think it's there anymore. It looks fairly abandoned.

    They are definitely not by FC anymore, but in the last couple years, I noticed they had a store on Reno in the "Furniture District".
