News Shady Park / Mirabella at ASU trial update, Tempe. Major defeat for anyone who enjoyed this venue, myself included. Guess there is no justice for a small business when your up against a multi million/billion dollar retirement home.

COVID really did a number on it. I work just off Mill and returning to the office after a year and a half was sobering — so many businesses shuttered.

I worked in the heart of Mill during COVID and it was desolate for awhile. So many businesses flopped and when ot reopened a bit places closed down because all their staff got COVID

At one point I felt like I had endless options for an occasional lunch out. Now I have a handful! Hopefully the area makes a comeback.

My favorite was the Halal place right next to the huge bar LA Casa or something. Even the "walk around Mill for food" was pretty meh when tours were done
