This is for the wine club? It looks fairly unadorned for the front area. Which I guess, is the way it's always looked.

Yup, I walked by the other day and it still looks like an abandoned retail space.

That reno job is unforgivably dire.

I wonder what sort of restrictions are placed on this space? Nine years is a bit long.

Sigh...

it’s so unfortunate considering the location and building. It had so much potential to offer a beautiful restaurant/bar patio to animate the street.
