Sun, with a few of the Waltons moving in and buying up some Emma Ave stuff, will they ever do something similar in Fayetteville? There are some streets downtown with wonderful potential which are being under-used.



In truth.. Probably not as it's just too cheap to them without the emotional attachment as well.

However, never say never but if I'm betting those are my two cents.

Yeah, same reason Springdale seems a random place. Those buildings were relatively cheap, but I just dont' see it.

A bar on Spring or even another one on Block Ave could really set the tone. The Colliers guy has expressed the desire for retail and parking garage at Dickson and Block which we recently purchased. Even a good bar on Mountain, like where Loafin Joe's is or where Uncle Gaylord's was, would be kinda cool. Stumbling distance, but far enough from the action to feel more like a neighborhood pub.

Here's a million dollar idea. Find some way to get the owners of the Mill building to separate off the front portion of that lot which faces School Ave. Build out that whole strip like Dickson. The parking in the rear is already there. That area is about to have a nice vibe anyway. That would be Dickson 2.0.

The land that site basically where this picture was taken from.
