I was looking for a photo of the mural at the K Street Tower Records to show somebody, and I came across this: K Street Mall: Past, Present and Future. It is a one-post blog about K Street Mall, started and (hopefully not) abandoned by an anonymous K Street Mall superfan. That is all.
I was kind of hoping that they would post again, but so far their blog seems even deader than mine!

Typical K Street activity for building:
Buy a lot.
Dig a big hole.
Fence it off.
Leave.

um, so far, on K Street that hasn’t happened…the only “hole” on K Street was more like:
Buy a building.
Rent it to tenants looking for low rent, then raise the rent after they move in until they go out of business.
Don’t spend any money on building maintenance for 20-30 years.
If the building catches fire, knock it down and sell the bricks to a construction-supply company.
After obstructing the city’s attempts to make something happen on the lot for two years, sell it to them for a profit and the first option to build a public-subsidized project on the lot. Have the city pay for fencing off the hole.

J St? I dunno- they all run together as “fenced holes in downtown Sac., on a major street, surrounded by the homeless, fences, Subway cups, and blowing pages from the SN&R.” We’re snarky here- not hyper-technical. Go work for the city assessor’s office if you want to know the exact APN.
