30th and Forest Lawn - Jimmy Johns?

Anyone know what they're building here? Tearing up the parking lot south of Taco Bell and putting up fences.

My brother says the construction workers told him it's going to be a Jimmy John's. Which is smart, considering little king's and subway are twenty feet away, and twenty times better.

Schizo?

Why wouldn't they open a store next to two other sandwich shops? Instead of finding a location that is underserved by sandwich shops, it makes more fisical sense to be a dick and muscle away some business from preexisting sandwich shops. It's the American way.

For my money, JJ's is the best.  I'd love it if there were about 12,000 less subways---it may encourage others to open shops and have some more options.

7406 N 30th is indeed a Jimmy Johns.

Overall I agree.  JJ is best for the "chain" sandwich stores.  I still would take Razzy's any day.  JJ is like McD, BK, etc.  Sometimes you get a good sandwich, other times you don't.  I have never had a bad experience at Razzy's, and I have been going there for over 20 years.

Jimmy Johns...stale bread and 2 pounds of shredded lettuce.  Yummmmmmmmmmmm!

I used to be jealous Lincoln had a JJ for so long and we didn't. Now I wish JJ would go to heck and die.
