I know nothing about the techs in this shop, though. They'll have to be broadway bike school level good if they'll consistently get my business. And be open weekends.
Hello, Cher from the Busted Knuckle here. While I can't speak for the staff at Broadway, our profile delineates some of Jay's qualifications and reflects our clients' experiences. I hope that's helpful. Cheers! http://www.yelp.com/biz/the-busted-knuckle-bicycle-shop-west-roxbury
It's going to become a restaurant (I'm pretty sure they have someone lined up). Construction will start in a few months (demo of the funeral home could possibly be before the end of the year). There will be commercial space in the new apartment building next door - which would be ideal for a small cafe.
The building was placed on the Nat'l Register of Historic Places, making it more difficult to do anything with it. Honestly, it's an ok building, but there's one in Eglestone Sq. so it's not exactly some rare gem.
There's a partially funded development plan which was approved to build apartments and restaurant. As noted yesterday can another restaurant be added to the square without hurting one of the existing ones? Or is one moving? Partial funding always sounds like BS until the ground is broken. See Filene's hole, etc...

that was the plan - the apartment building is funded, the substation will not be funded until they've sold some of the units. The reporting on this article is inaccurate.
The old This 'N That Flowers was a big campaign ad for Steve Murphy prior to the election. Went past it today, and it was all cleaned up with "For Lease" signs in the windows. The bike shop might be going into the former Doggerie space next door.
We'll be moving to #159 Belgrade, the corner lot at Walworth, immediately next to the Doggarie. The lease has been signed, we should be getting keys tonight. The for lease sign hasn't been removed yet, but most of the stuff from the Murphy campaign is gone.
and to Rozzie, and live on Walworth, so I am very excited about a bike shop coming to the 'hood. It was something i noticed missing in the area. Good luck and welcome!

Great news!
Now we're just a coffee and bagel shop short of being a World Class Neighborhood™.
I know
...just convert that white elephant substation into a cafe.
I can't believe the time and effort spent on ensuring that building can't get knocked down and replaced with something useful. What a waste of effort.

Anyways, yay bike shop.
the apartment building is going to fund the substation

Is that the old flower shop...
...next to Seven Star Street Bistro?
The old This 'N That Flowers
The old This 'N That Flowers was a big campaign ad for Steve Murphy prior to the election. Went past it today, and it was all cleaned up with "For Lease" signs in the windows. The bike shop might be going into the former Doggerie space next door.
We're moving into the space
We're moving into the space that formerly housed This 'n That and the Murphy campaign. The Doggarie is definitely still open.
We'll be moving to #159
We'll be moving to #159 Belgrade, the corner lot at Walworth, immediately next to the Doggarie. The lease has been signed, we should be getting keys tonight. The for lease sign hasn't been removed yet, but most of the stuff from the Murphy campaign is gone.
Exactly!
