just what we needed another hotel. Maybe they will build a self-storage out back and the town will be complete.

Does anyone know what is going into the former Blackeyed Pea building on University? I see the "For Sale" sign is down and someone is fixing it up.

I have heard that it will be an Asian/Chinese restaurant.

I recently met Ludwig, the owner of the German restaurant/Irish pub that is going in downtown Bryan. He said they were about 6 weeks from finishing the build out. Judging from what I saw when walking around the interior, that is about right. It looks like it is going to be a really great place.

What ever happened to the Hooters? And where the hell is FM 158?

FM 158 aka Booneville Rd/Hwy 30.

Unreal.
I wonder of the proposed move to a different location for Hooter's is a result of all those people complaining.
Funny, they have no problem with the dildo shop opening up in the same center, but you let someone come in serving chicken wings and we're all going to hell.

That's because they probably don't know what a dildo is... So they wont know to protest until they get a look at the place.

Hooters would do better out on they bypass anyway, IMHO.

Wow. You can say dildo, but you can't say peenus. Interesting.

I'm guessing you won't be able to say the D word for long.

You can also say b|tch on TV. TexAgs/MyBCS doesn't follow the same guidelines as the FCC though.

That 158/60 info is way outdated, the permit application was for the North Park Plaza location.

As far as them actually ever building, I'll believe it when they open.

True. I doubt the FCC gets overly worked up about a g g y.

Case in point... anyone remember the b**** jean craze in the 80s

I would think someone would have to complain about the use of the word "dildo" for them to consider it.

It looks like there is a Volvo dealership going in Bryan at 2818 and Beckstreet. In the building that use to be Surplus Warehouse. Some one said it was a rental place though. Also the Villa Maria underpass is partly open, looks really nice also. The Target sign is up. I wonder when it will open. And what is that going up next to the Target?

I am just curious- people are in an uproar about this cindys place. isnt there an adult video in college staion next to denny's? people can by dildos there...

Adult Video was closed years ago as a result of the federal tax case against the parent company (it was one of the assets seized). There is another novelty shop in Bryan, though. Woody's is on S. College, but I haven't been in that one.


P.S. I'll try to update the master list tomorrow. I also noticed that the restaurant in the old Holiday Inn on Texas is now a Fulin Chinese Restaurant.

I think they must have bulldozed the place because I don't think the building is even there anymore. IDK, it happened when we were living elsewhere.

Since Volvo makes medium and heavy duty trucks (big box vans up to tractor trailer trucks) as well, my guess would be that it is a Volvo truck center which also does leasing. Good location for that type of venture.

I didn't see this on the front page list:

Burger King is building a new restaurant next to McDonalds on Hwy 21.


for those college kids working at McD's, etc. I hear BK is starting $8/hr for experienced workers!
