    The club is closed. It will be re-purposed. Also, Gilbert will be putting up a new building [[of micro apartments) in the same area.

    These micros are what about 300 - 400 square feet.

    I have no idea what your reference to $1,200 watches has to do with repurposing a club to residential.
    Didn't you ask why they don't put the mini-apartments over by WSU for students? They're being put where they're being put as a comercial venture and not affordable student housing. Most students don't have the time or money to shop 'till they drop.

    I was kind of 'free associating'.

    The Grind is [[or was) torn down and new micro [[very small) apartments built there.

    I also thought: Why not ALSO do something similar for students [[near WSU's campus)?

    I guess in the world of social media, I was getting off on a tangent...

    NP Steve. Somewhere there's a whole other thread about the minipads. I was surprised to see this one about the daily Grind. My posts are kind of space-like anyway. I do agree with you that they'd make great student housing. Hope you find someone to have a good metaphysical discussion with.

    Enough is enough, let's get back to the $12 crappy & stale plastic cup left-over draft beer discussion.....

    Quick question about the Grind Strip Club for those old enough to recall: I seem to recall that they tried to expand in the first decade of this century, into the site south of their building - do I have that right? Its my recollection that they were calling it a renovation by leaving up an old wall, but when that wall fell down they wouldve needed approval for a new build, which they couldnt get in the CBD, so that put the kabash on things. A fire followed some years after, and then Gilbert acquired and developed the site.
