Not here, but the tourists small towns, like Nashville, still support a lot of one of a kind shops. We spend time up in Michigan in the summer and all of the lake towns are filled with unique stores and restaurants. Good Michigan microbreweries, too.Yeah, there's no such thing as small town retail anymore.

I'm talking about shoe stores and sporting goods stores and neighborhood grocery stores and the like.

Well I see you found the one good(ish), kind of, pic of that effin weed patch where some usable park space could actually be. And then you got most of the usual puss suspects to like it. What a waste of space and an eye sore.That's actually a passive water treatment system for the open storm sewer that empties into it from under 17th. It's a great example of good public works.
Now that I only come to town about twice a year, just to get some colored ribbon and wifi, I was surprised to see that one. I thought it was well placed and big enough, but NOT one inch to big. I could see it being a little bigger for sure!I'm not sold on the new one at Curry and Woodyard. Lots of big truck traffic through there.
Yes, there’s a big housing shortage for single family homes here, but a lot of that is due to investors buying up homes and renting them out, which means first-time home buyers are squeezed out with no available homes in their price range. That’s a national problem though, not just a Bloomington problem.
Clicks, there are a lot of clicks. The urban and south/ south east crowd have always (30-40 yrs) been uppity'ish. It's like they enjoy being controlled and their safe words are MORE TAXES PLEASE. Those are not "real" indigenous Monroe county area residents.The local Monroe county residents I know seem to love the place.

Bloomington may no longer have the small town charm it used to have:
37-bypass, I-69, and Big Box chains have seen to that.
I think it’s got a way to go to get as bad as SF.
Kliendorfers? Have they weathered the storm? Talk about ICON!Yeah, there's no such thing as small town retail anymore.
They're the exception.Kliendorfers? Have they weathered the storm? Talk about ICON!
When they go down.......... That is when Aliens land and take over. Kliendorfers is our last hope. The true definition of, "daddy won't sell the farm".They're the exception.

I looked it up and it's over 19,000 locations as of last month. Had no idea it was that many.They’re everywhere.
They’re putting the hurt on Wal Mart. You can also get Bread,Milk, Eggs there.I looked it up and it's over 19,000 locations as of last month. Had no idea it was that many.
You are quite sheltered if you think Bloomington is as progressive as SF or LA.If you are not a student, or a cali transplant, or IU faculty, or an academic type, Bloomington sucks. If you are a "local" legacy Monroe county resident, Bloomington has slowly turned into San Fran or LA communism.
It was for comparison only. And the locals don't care if it IS AS, or ALMOST, or KINDA CLOSE... They are sick of the HS.You are quite sheltered if you think Bloomington is as progressive as SF or LA.

Their entire business strategy is to take wal mart business.They’re putting the hurt on Wal Mart. You can also get Bread,Milk, Eggs there.
Good God. I couldn't imagine what that's like.You are quite sheltered if you think Bloomington is as progressive as SF or LA.
