I can’t recall a single story, at least in the business marketing space such as this site, that has attracted as much attention as the opening of the Bistro Market in dowtown Springfield. The space has been jam-packed from the moment it opened and is drawing very positive reviews for the game-changing nature of it’s design. I stopped by on Sunday night at 8pm and the seating area in front (approximately 50 seats) was full and the line for food from the four serving areas (bar, hot food buffet, gelato, Starbucks) was consistent. The staffing appeared to be pretty good as well although one of the complaints I’ve heard is that service is still slow. To be expected in a new facility and one that is drawing a crowd at what has been a ghost period downtown in the past. Only Nonna’s and Mudhouse have been consistent performers on Sunday evenings and never have I seen a crowd like this in six years of downtown living.
No grocery store in Springfield has stirred as much excitement as Bistro Market by Price Cutter, which opened Friday at Walnut Street and South Avenue with bigger-than-expected crowds and rave reviews from customers.
Lets just get to the point. The new Price Cutter Bistro Market in downtown Springfield, MO is possibly one of the best things to happen to downtown Springfield in a long…long long time.
I’ve been shopping for some upcoming birthdays in September and I’ve found my solution – Rain Barrels. That’s right, I’m shopping for my sister and Mom and rather than another ‘thing’ to clutter up their households (we’ve all had a few years to fill our homes) I’ve settled on a Rain Barrel solution. It doesn’t hurt that both households enjoy maintaining simple gardens and potted plants outside and I know this is going to go over well. Check this out from the James River Basin Partnership website.
Using a rain barrel is a perfect way to provide nice soft water to your plants, conserve fresh water, and help correct stormwater runoff problems. Water is collected off your roof and used later for your non-potable water needs. An average home with a roof size of 1,000 square feet will generate approximately 600 gallons of water from a 1-inch rainfall. With our Save it FROM a Rainy Day program we are offering two different style rain barrels through two local partnerships. An instant rebate is available to Green County residents thanks to the City of Springfield, Greene County Resource Management, and City Utilities.
While details are scarce, especially given the high visibility of the indie theater within the community, it has been confirmed that founders Nicole and Dan Chilton have sold the theater. Using Twitter to make the announcement, Dan offered this on Thursday July 29th at 3:26 pm
We’ve signed on the dotted line; the Moxie has sold. Couldn’t be more proud and excited to transition from owner to supporter.
The word on the street is that there is an ownership group of local families who have applied for non-profit status for the theater. That would fit with Nicole’s comments in April on the Moxie blog noting – We will be selective on who takes over, because we don’t want to see this business in the wrong hands
From the website: We are THRILLED to announce the opening of our newest store in SPRINGFIELD, MISSOURI! The Cup GRAND OPENING is scheduled for July 30th at our new space at 325 E. Walnut, right next door to the ADORABLE Good Girl Art Gallery. If you live nearby (we’re talking to YOU, BRANSON!) stop by for a cupcake or a great cup of coffee and check out the newest member of our Cup Family!!
