Ok so not a brewery…Wine Collective does Vino and Vinyasa. Not sure what day. Of course if you want beer just go to the other end of the building to Union Craft Brewing

In the beginning (the 80s) it was almost all local shops. A handful of retail anchors…Laura Ashley, the 80s version of The Limited…Phillips when it had 4 total locations

Over time, it changed to be rented to more regular retail…then the gallery opened. Maybe it was too much retail for the city at that stage

There is parking basically attached to Ramshead. Go in the back of Ramshead building. Yes, you probably have to cut through The Block a little. Avert your eyes. The elevator in the garage puts you into Ramshead. I go to 50 plus concerts a year all over. It is safe in there. Highly recommend Underground Pizza next to Ramshead.

Cromwell Valley then drinks at McFauls. Really varied hiking in the park and it connects into Loch Raven so it’s quite large. Barrans Baldwin trail if you are up for a little challenge

I’m so sorry this happened to you. I have anxiety when locking my eBike up anywhere. I’m thinking about hiding an air tag on it to track it if stolen.

Was the handrail cut or your locking mechanism?

I patronize the restaurants as one of my kids, who is queer, is employed by them as a musician. I go to see my kid, and I sit back and observe. I see extremely diverse staff and patrons, and what seems to be a positive work environment. My kid has had positive experiences in their venues, is paid better than market, and feels safe. The management I’ve seen is on the ball and professional. Granted, my view is narrowly of a subset of their properties but I’ve gotten to a pretty good sampling of experiences

I just don’t think they are the evil empire Reddit makes them out to be.

I also heavily patronize independent restaurants and music venues in the city so I see a lot.
