“Developers are expanding outward from Midtown Crossing to Leavenworth and St. Mary's (Avenue),” Lewin said. “Several apartment buildings have been renovated around that area. When you've got the population, you're going to see the retail follow.”

Imaginarium Superstore will soon close for good: Owners story isn't over
On the corner of 16th and Leavenworth, sits a downtown treasure, full of treasures. "It's been a big part of the community, we have loved being here, a really nice neighborhood,” said Bob Schafer, co-owner of the Imaginarium Super Store. Bob and Sarah Schafer took ownership of the store five years ago.
