If only Delta would add LAX or SLC! We desperately need a western gateway.

Agreed.

If they are planning to relocate, the employees do not know about it. I hope they decide to open up elsewhere.

Both Williams Sonoma and Pottery Barn are going out of business in Midtown. They will close in January 2022. There are signs on the doors announcing the closure. It's so sad to see these two leave the metro!

I just flew into LIT and saw a billboard in the airport announcing new service to Atlanta and Denver on Southwest Airlines.

Has anyone heard an update on the Capital Hotel reopening? A former employee told me that there is chatter that it is permanently closed.

The lady that owned Zaffino's has a serious health issue. I know the person who is taking the space over as a new restaurant concept.

FYI: Zaffino's didn't close because of COVID-19.

Yes.

Nexus Coffee expanded its space to include the corner of La Harpe and President Clinton. We were just there and it was packed with people.

I attempted to book the nonstop LIT–DTW flight on Delta, but it was not available. From what I gathered through searching, it will not be available until March. I guess Delta has made this a seasonal service route. We desperately need a SLC or MSP flight on Delta. It is so frustrating to fly to ATL to go west.

Signage is going up on the old Dixie Cafe in Lakewood Village for Black Bear Diner. It's a west coast chain. It will be interesting to see how well it does. https://blackbeardiner.com

Yes, one of the contractors is a personal friend. So exciting!

FYI: NLR is set to get a Raising Cane's. Its location is in the same vicinity as Freddy's, Chick-fil-a, and Popeye's on East McCain Blvd.

Today I dined at the soon-to-be-opened Purple Cow in NLR. It was great! The building is beautiful, and the food was delicious. The COO informed me that it would open to the public on Friday. Also, NLR is set to get a Raising Cane's. Its location is in the same vicinity as Freddy's, Chick-fil-a, and Popeye's on East McCain Blvd.
