Below are a few photos from the past week.

The former location of Thai Tara has been razed…

In the Rainey Street district, next door to El Naranjo…

We’re seeing progress on Icenhaur’s

The lone house on Bierce Street…

This is the only house on Bierce Street

This billboard on W 5th Street is completely blocked from view by the bank building. It’s always been a curiosity to me.

This billboard is having an existential crisis

    I’ve wondered about that billboard. Perhaps a way to propose to someone working in an east side office, but otherwise useless. I’m also looking with interest to the development at the old Thai Tiara site. Meanwhile the old Mother Egan’s is making substantial progress towards reopening, as a tequilla bar? Hope not.
