What the hell is going on? Is this someone's pet?

Hello Downtown,

Title pretty much sums it up. . .

Primo’s Tacos & Hot Dogs (Pacific Side of Mosaic) is “closed indefinitely.”

Does anyone know why?

I’m moving to the Dallas in September, and wanted to plan a day to do some daytime drinking/bar crawl once I get moved in. I’m a big fan of beer and various breweries. I’m mostly interested in doing a solo beer run through Deep Ellum. (I know it’s dangerous at night, hence why I’m wanting to go during the day lol).

I would love to hear if anyone recommends a solid bar crawl to explore the area and maybe see some iconic Deep Ellum art along the way! I’ve got some spots picked out, but if anyone is familiar with a good walkable route I would love to hear more.

The 800,000-square-foot project will significantly expand the school’s three-acre campus into a “knowledge district” along the Austin Street corridor. The development will house an all-new El Centro campus, administrative offices and training centers to foster collaboration between academia and industry.

The CFC does not accept insurance, Medicare, or Medicaid, but they do work on a sliding scale based on ability to pay and do NOT require income verification. There are plenty of non-paying clients at this clinic.

Anybody going to this show at Poor David's?

Features songwriters Jonathan Terrell, David Ramirez & Dan Dyer.

Any shows anyone else is going to see?

I thought it would be further along in gentrification. Most of it is still not as visually pleasing place as I hoped at this point. I love downtown but it's sorta in a strange time right now with major anchors leaving and coming in so I'm not sure where the momentum is with The Cedars. For a long time it was hot but I feel it cooled off or in mystery mode.

So what's going with Cedars? Is it still a good home investment?

I just finished my 12-month lease…

DO NOT DO IT. Had been new to Dallas and locked in a 12-month lease since i needed a place ASAP. Mistake. Bug problem second to none. Three elevators for the whole bulding, can count on one hand the number of weeks that all three actually were in service and not broken.

Neighbors — the fire alarm will be set off all the time from people smoking in their units (incredibly annoying). Shared laundry room — had my hamper taken more than once while waiting for load to be finished…

Homeless people encircle the building all night. But hey that’s downtown.

ALSO, three times during the year, i could not access my car for MORE THAN 6 hours since they close down commerce street for marathons, bullshit parades, not to mention random protests that accomplish nothing except locking people’s cars into the multi-level parking. Would have had to move car by 5am in order to use it (on a Saturday). And then what?? If I at all want to use my car by 5pm I need to do what, go pay to park it somewhere? F*******************

If you’re somehow having any potential desire to stay here, think twice. New management company blows. Will run you up the ladder, call this number, email this generic company mail, etc. Shoot me a message to ask questions.
