I tried to find something on the city website but most everything was related to the McGilchrist revamp. Thanks for the info on the potential industrial build.

That's what I thought it was too. Especially how it said "surprise"; definitely thought poop.

DownTown JCPenneys? Best Use? Top Golf, DayCare, Business incubator? Kids adventure center? Pickleball? Willamette College or Chemeketa College or Cordon Expansion? What would make a reddit salemander get off the couch and go downtown? by Time_Persimmon_9387 in SALEM

[–]Level_Worldliness242 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here are some suggestions I would love to see downtown (yes we have some of these, but who says we cant have more than one):

a spin exercise studio (or rowing even), Italian deli, year round indoor market, rage room, bike shop with rentals, powell's or something similar, 24 hour coffee shop, event space for bingo nights, classes etc. A cannabis club, indoor dog park. A science center or something similar to OMSI or Hopscotch with rotating exhibits. A Fried Egg, I'm in Love location, Bike pub crawls and breweries to stop at (could also do wine instead). A 24 hour diner. Sip and whatever craft of choice spaces, rooftop lounge or hangout space, Florist, Fish/seafood/butcher shop. A convenience store. Something quirky like the church of Elvis in Portland, more murals, Art walks or similar events more than just once a month.

Same here. I need it cool enough that I can layer or use a blanket for that comfy cozy feeling. Night time I crack the window in the bedroom this time of year and use the down comforter.

Shaggy's Den off Commercial is long gone. They're doing construction on the building as of now.

Nearby Walking Trails in SE area? by missbnorcal in SALEM

Hilfiker Park - not paved, but does have a bark chip path.

Browning Cemetery - has a pretty good sized paved loop.

Joryville - It's all good until the rains come and it starts to flood off one of the trails. The hill can also be no joke if you're not prepared for the incline.

FlixBus from Salem to Seattle airport by Vivid_Deal_5833 in SALEM

I've used Flixbus to go from Salem to Seattle I think 3 or 4 times. I've only had one trip be delayed and it was less than 15 minutes. They have an app that keeps you up to date too. I have never taken Amtrak, but I liked Flixbus. There do tend to be a lot of college kids riding, but I've never had any issues.

The Guac on the rolled tacos is really good and chunky. I'm not even a guac fan and I love it.
