The Bread Fruit, a Jamaican restaurant, will open this spring on Pierce Street near First Street. Around the corner in a restored one-story commercial building at 735 North First Street, the sign on the window says one of the building's spaces is being fitted for a restaurant. There are rumblings of a sushi place coming into 215 E. McKinley's ground floor. All of these places are within a very short walk of Matt's Big Breakfast and the Roosevelt. It's incredible to see these developments in the midst of a slow market.
One negative: seeing The Bread Fruit find a home in a teeny old one-story building does make me wonder what could have been had ASU salvaged the Taylor Street bungalows. But I guess there's little need to dwell on the past with so many good things ahead.
