91 & Yale Development

[Ibanez]

The concrete crews came through and did a wonderful job on the business entrances on the South side of 101st and Yale and a nice job on the drainage canals.  I was really impressed.

Then the asphalt crew came through and jacked it all to Hell.  Wow, they did a horrible job.  They didn't smooth the asphalt at all going into the businesses and now when those folks are leaving it's a big bump to get out.

That was a lot of money to spend for a half-assed job from a contractor someone's brother in law.

Corrected....

Becco?  Sounds like their work. 

Last summer they came through Elwood between I-44 and W. 41st St. and dug out random patches of asphalt down to the substrate.  I'm assuming they were fixing sunken areas of asphalt from all the semi traffic.  Now we have a bunch of sunken patches all down the road so I can enjoy "kerthunk, kerthunk, kerthunk..." every day since they could not be troubled to flush in the final asphalt layer.

I wonder.  Is Becco the same contractor who did the 169 resurfacing project?  You know?  The one that makes 169 feel like driving on runway 36R out at TIA?

  Perhaps they anticipate the asphalt and substrate to settle?

Maybe so, but Becco is still half-assed....

Would not surprise me. I avoid 169 at all cost.

I used to not really be able to.  That is until I started working at 15th and Sheridan.

CVS Pharmacy opened over the weekend.  I also saw a sign for Smashburger.  Not sure of what else is going in there, but they are moving fast to get the spots filled and open

McNellie's group takes over their space in about 30-45 days to begin build out of Yokozuna.  Open few months after that.

Whole Foods got a Jimmie Johns as a neighbor.

Was in Moore OK a couple days ago and had the opportunity to eat at the new Smashburger there... blech!!  Will never bother with that again.

Strange how a little distance can make a big difference - the one in Wichita is pretty decent.

I think your memory might be flawed.

I was the same way untill I ordered a burger at SB with "no salt" which was pretty darn good...

[heironymouspasparagus]

Always possible, but this time, I think it is ok.  Not sure why there would be a difference, but it wasn't burnt up there.  And the fries were better...but I got the regular instead of the smashed.  Rosemary just doesn't belong on a french fry.  Other potato cooking methods, yes.  But not that one.
