Anyone know any info about the auto parts place on Park? There was a small for rent sign on the building (garage really) and then last week they slapped a gigantic for rent sign on there. Is this zoned to only be auto parts/garage things along this line? It's odd because that place always seems so busy.

    To be clear, the zoning is residential but building C of O is for a "G9" use or garage with show room. If it sits vacant long enough, the building will revert to a residential use. It is a "non-conforming" use meaning the building was being used as a garage when the residential zoning ordinances were passed a long time ago. If some one wanted to use it as say a restaurant, they'd have to apply for a variance but I'm sure the community would prefer just about anything to a garage.

    What do you think?

    Besides the fact that they sometimes park their junky cars in already sparse street parking, I don't really mind them. I'm interested to see how the Hello Living condos do one block over on Sterling and if that would effect what happens here. Wouldn't mind a restaurant either though!
