THIS JUST IN: Planning Hearing on 3/20 for Walker's Cafe Redevelopment. Help Walker's--SPEAK UP!
Dear Friends of Walker’s Cafe,
TWO YEARS AGO, Prospect Group unveiled their plans for a giant, 3,500+ sqf, two-story development in the back of the Walker’s Cafe lot.
Now, the plans will be reviewed at a City Planning Hearing on Thursday, March 20.
The current plans would mean the death of Walker’s Cafe.
Restaurant consultants who have reviewed the plans with us agree: Prospect Group seems to be mothballing the cafe. There is no cafe operator involved, no restaurant consultants, no roadmap for reopening.
The current plans leave no space for a full kitchen, storage, enough outdoor seating, and the facilities a restaurant needs to survive in today’s market. All that space is being sacrificed to build a giant house.
Walker’s Cafe – and San Pedro – deserves better.
