But I do think it will be nice for carless people in the area to be able to buy food and trashcans and soap.Ben Connor Barriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05193673795454832674noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2281014352729737607.post-10922886616906136182010-12-31T10:20:00.738-05:002010-12-31T10:20:00.738-05:00I share the sentiment.

Wystan Stevens, no surprise, has <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/70251312@N00/tags/statestreet/" rel="nofollow">an extensive collection</a> of postcards and photographs of State St. through the decades. Very worth a long look.<br /><br />I take solace in knowing that there's at the very least an ebb and flow to it. Where Cosi has been for 9 years soon there will be La Marsa which, while not wholly independent, will be only the fifth of the southeast Michigan-only Mediterranean restaurant. Ed Davidson, owner and operator of Bivouac, is the building's owner and specifically kept it local (and, in my opinion, thankfully more upscale than so-called Great Wraps and Noodles & Co.).<br /><br />For every Chipotle, there's Sava's, for every Starbucks, there's Comet and Lab, for every Five Guys there's La Marsa.<br /><br />But seriously, 7-11?
