The Global Peak Performance Center at the foot of West 3rd Street. This is some sort of sports medicine facility for the basketball team, at least some in the city will receive quality health care.

Blue Cafe
Stopped by the Blue Cafe the other day, new location, just a few doors down the street from the old spot. Now located at 15701 Madison Avenue, bigger space, large windows, different vibe, same great coffee.

Red Caboose
Word on the street is the Red Caboose is closing next month. This was always the place to stop when we were in town. There was a lot of stuff down in that basement. The wall of out of print transportation books was awesome. Found a few gems down there.
