1. Raff's and their tomato basil soup. Not a "national" but like each place in
town, brings in a
whole nother set of folks. And FAMILIES.
2. Daytime - you need OFFICE WORKERS in downtown during the day. 10 people
walking
around isn't enough. Take Dan's idea and if he has someone, rework muni plaza
with CITY
Office, BOE Offices (neat in the same place), retail and OFFICE space.
3. NATIONAL retail. IF there is one retailer or lunch guy in AP that doesn't
want a national
retailer in, then they need a better idea. One retailer could do more for
marketing the
business district then Jewell or any marketing would be able to do. Now the
question would
be "where could they go??" Well, it's a shame Raff's is where it is. So it will
be up to MM to
make it work -all the way into cookman. That includes Wesley Phase II/III to
fill in the gap.
That should be done now, during the "slump" to bring cookman and wesley
together. If it
means removing the M&K and Phoneix, then let her go. Plant grass and mulch it
or fence it
off.
