The old strip club on the corner next to DC's and the two adjacent bays that are next to the Max are undergoing renovation. It appears all three spaces are being combined.

Anyone have any idea what is being developed?? It would be great to clean up this eyesore, I'm sure the Jloft team will be thrilled.

You're talking abouton the South West corner of 14th and Jackson, right?

The strip club used to be the Tiger Lilly's, but has been empty for a while. They had an art show in that building a year or two ago.

It would be nice to see something more permanent happen with it.

Jun Kaneko owns the two buildings to the west of the former Tiger Lily's, maybe he is up to something.

Development next to the Max? Maybe it's the new addition to Bayside High.

There is a small gallery open at 11th & Jones. I think it's been there for a few weeks now. It's not Kaneko though.

I haven't noticed that yet. Thanks.

From an old OWH article about 1000-1100 Jones Kaneko development:
The space will be home to seven galleries, an experimental studio, an event space, a video room, two sculpture gardens, two research centers and administrative offices.

That's probably the old Dark Room Gallery on the North West corner of 11th and Jones.

Renovation is once again in progress on this building. The brick facade is being completely exposed and significant work is going on inside. I have no idea what is going in here, maybe another bar.

If I was a betting man, with its location between DC's and the MAX, I'd say a gay bar. Probably some form of bar to be sure. Time will tell.

You know what would be great at that location....a restaurant like Hamburger Mary's. Or a coffee house, open late for those wanting to unwind after the bars close.
