I've been lurking for a bit, but figured I'd finally start an account. Hi all!
Anyway, I pass that sign everyday, and it is a Building for Lease sign, but I don't believe it actually says anything about the makeover itself. That little strip is really interesting right now; there's a lot of work going into one side of Buffalo Tobacco Traders (looks like it will be a lounge: https://www.facebook.com/BUFFALOTRADERSLOUNGE/), the Heirloom Building just got a new tenant that will be opening soon, Rakowski Family Farm Market just opened up, and there are a couple vacant places as well (one of the antique places is no more, and the popup Cakabakery is vacant). It'll be interesting to see how the dust settles.
