True Value Hardware Store Relocating

True Value is said to be relocating to the former Long's Drugstore At Smoke Tree Shopping Center from their Palm Springs Mall location.  Move date is expected this fall.

It's nice to know the boarded up eyesore at Smoke Tree isn't with us for too much longer!

Prescott Place - Palm Springs

Prescott Place is one of my favorite new buildings in Palm Springs.  I like the scale all around, that it doesn't hover over its surroundings...and its closeness to the sidewalk. I also like that it's a mixed-use development.  I think more (future) development in Palm Springs should look to this project as an example.

New median going in along Sunrise Way

A new median is going in along Sunrise Way near the intersection of Tahquitz Canyon Way.  It looks to be  in conjunction with the new medical complex going in at the southwest corner of Tahquitz and Sunrise.

I like the idea of medians, especially when they're landscaped (desert landscape).  I'd like to see a median all along Sunrise Way!
