What's going on with the shopping center next to Circle K on Cole?

There's like 3 shops open: restaurant, movie rental and pet grooming. A party supply store seems to be ready to go, but it's not open yet. Is that hair salon even open? What happened to the sports bar?

It looks to me like some of the tenants pulled out.


hows that Mexican food place? Been meaning to go there but i keep forgetting that it is there...


I don't know why, but I always try out new Mexican places on this side with a carne asada burrito. I didn't like it, but as I was walking out I saw two plates and they looked real good. The prices were a little higher than average.

I haven't gone back. Some day I will though.

Because it's probably the cheapest thing on the menu that will give you a good indicator of their food quality. You really can't judge a place if you order the 6 rolled...

FYI: The gas station being built on Cole and Bowker will be a Chevron.

I've confirmed this from the gas pump decals that read Techron. It doesn't seem like there will be a JITB or coffee shop like the location on Kloke and 98.

Hopefully the gas prices won't be outrageous. Or even more outrageous than they already are, that is.

The whole thing behind this is because DHS wants to create southbound ports where they will check you (and your car) before you go into Mexico… Don't know how they are going to build all these ports since they cant even fully staff their current ports...


Damn it. It's gonna get tougher to smuggle Americans into Mexico...


apparently the GSA/DHS has scaled down their Calecia west port expancion plans....

I think they should just build a bunch of Sentri lines on the west side so that all of us Sentri-ers can whoosh by screaming "so long SUCKERS!" at all the folks who don't have it!

YES!

considering that the chevron on the west side has gas prices at par with the rest of the city.. i wouldn't see why this would be an issue... too bad they didn't make it next to the 98 and Cole... I hate Cole.. too many stops between 98 and Andrade...

I realized it was actually going to be a Texaco shop a few days later, but didn't update my finding in hopes that someone would blast me on this one.

Mission accomplished.
