Great Western Markeplace Opens on Friday

Great Western Markeplace Opens on Friday

Local businesses take root in Northwest Reno! Though this is outside of my normal 1-mile zone coverage from downtown, it's a significant project worth mentioning, because I love the idea of extending local businesses out to big-box-ville, and gives residents of Northwest Reno a whole new array of shopping options.

New Murals in Midtown Showcase Art

New Murals in Midtown Showcase Art

Marmot Properties recently commissioned artist Eric Burke to paint a mural on their garage doors facing the alley between Sinclair and Center Streets. It's the latest of many murals painted by Burke in Midtown. This one is titled "Flight of the Bumblebee."

I'm a huge fan or murals as a visual way to enhance the neighborhood, and it also deters graffiti.
