Another Public Works Item from the 1/29/08 6:00 PM meeting:

These are old items as well. Why are trying to abandon these streets?

[JimmyGreaves]

This is interesting. Does this mean that the abandonment approved in 1981 is being reconsidered?

Resolution Requesting to Reconsider Resolution Number 174, Approved March 26, 1981, relative to the abandonment of a portion of Hanover Street from Dexter Street to Bucklin Street.

I hate IHOP due to the fact they put pancake batter in the eggs! I kid you not. They say it is to make them fluffy.

Count yor blessings, people -- it could have been a Waffle House. Or a Denny's. Moons Over My Hammy, indeed.

I, for one, am happy about the return of the IHOP. It recalls those innocent days at the original blue slanty-roof IHOP on Thayer Street, where the City Sports/Kinko's is now. Remember that? Don't remember, however, the name of the bar that went in the IHOP space after it closed.

[ruchele]

I'm so confused. How did we start talking about IHOP?

[Cotuit]

Its all Jen's fault, per usual.

My clesrest memory of IHOP comes from hanging out there some time aound midnight once back in high school. I asked how big a serving of pudding was. The waitron answered, "We open two of those single-serving pudding cups and put them in a dish." A restaurant is supposed to at least PRETEND they prepare the "food" being served, right?

[Cotuit]

I remember hanging out at the one in Hyannis in high school and the coffee having a certain green tone to it. We were in high school, so we didn't care and actually thought it kind of funny.

[jencoleslaw]

it is in the valley neighborhood so i figured this was the place for my mini rant.

[jencoleslaw]

Out of all the glorious things going on in PVD specifically the area surrounding Valley, O'ville, Smith Hill and Fed Hill.. This IHOP is the most important and needed development to my neighbors and tenants.. Actually, its the only thing anyone has mentioned.. EVER.. Put that in your pipe...

[Recchia]

thank god for IHOP, now the strippers from Club Fantasy will have somewhere to go after work.

Hey, so the State Film Commission is proposing renting the Armory out to a movie production again, which might mean moving the Fire Marshall out. They are asking for $20,000 rent for the building from Feb-June. I guess they are deciding in the next week if the building is going to stay as state offices or be used for film production.

Thoughts?
