I don't mean to predict the closing of Nosoo because I really like that place. Good food, good service, and a nice atmosphere. I will continue to eat there. And they seem to be doing well from my vantage point.
But that location has been a revolving door of closings.
I hope they make it.

Is the Londoner still closed?
Hopefully they received their new license.

Ha ha ha! I haven't seen anything else since that posting. I could enjoy a nice ski lodge with hot chocolate right about now.

I drove by, what appeared to be a ground breaking ceremony for an Ace Pet Resort on McDermott/Main, I want to say in the empty lot near Auto Zone.

Is the Sears Outlet closing? I saw a going out of business sign in that shopping center but couldn't tell what business it meant.

The closing sign is for the Texaco station, not the Sears Outlet store. (see richardb post above)

Yes, the Texaco station is closing. The property management is going to tear it down along with the bank next door to it. There will be a Midas Muffler built in its place. The space where the drive through bank is located will be leased as a pad site for some other business.

Per article
http://dallas.culturemap.com/...purple-cow-burger-restaur ant-plano-fairview-closed /
Two suburban branches of Purple Cow restaurant have closed, narrowing down the mini-chain's presence in Dallas to only the original location at Preston-Royal.
The Fairview location closed a couple of weeks ago, and a branch in Plano closed "about a month and a half ago," confirmed a staffer at the Preston-Royal store. "There's only one open, and that's us," she said.
