“Dear PoPville,
I went to the Park View Call Your Mother this morning and you could see like 80% of the place inside was empty. They’ve got rid of all the production equipment and setup that used to take up most of the footprint. I’m just really hoping they’re not planning to close it.”
Fear not, it’s just the opposite – the folks from CYM tell me:
“Just getting ready to reopen the inside. About 20 seats. Hoping end of August!
Time to take it back to the good old days!”

“Dear PoPville,
Drove by Smitty’s (Thursday night, 8pm) and was surprised to see it looked closed. Looked it up on Google Maps and it now reads “Smitty’s (CLOSED)”. (more…)

“Dear PoPville,
Over the last couple of years Bruce Monroe park has become a pole of attraction for drugs and crime. Last year, the play area was vandalized. This year, the fence has been taken down already twice, presumably to obtain access after hours (see picture above). There is always a lot of trash scattered on the ground. It is not unusual to see people using drugs, and a few months ago someone died of overdose.
The situation, already regrettable, (more…)

A. asks: “is Mom N Pops Antiques in Park View closing? There’s new “For Sale” window wraps up saying ground floor business and residential. It’s currently one floor, so it would be awful to see this place go & another condo building go in.”
Thanks to J. for sharing photos: “The inside looked normal. Everything still in there. And that sign on the door must be recent.”
This is almost too painful a sight to bear. Mom n Pop Antiques is 38 years old!! (more…)
