      <![CDATA[Lola's didn't succeed because it wasn't open when people are around to use it.  Kawali Grill is going great guns, lots of publicity and success!  It will be the same for Afrikando if he keeps hours that are convenient for people.  There are people going out of business all over -- don't you know the economy is performing poorly?  HCNA never did much anyway.  Most of the work being done in Hillman City is being done by HCBA -- the business association.

      <![CDATA[It's too bad about Lola's - As you mentioned, they were open odd hours - generally, they were closed when I was leaving for work in the morning - and closed in the afternoon - when I was coming home.  <br />
<br />
As for the barbeque pit -I don't know what happened there - they looked like they were going to open about a year ago - then nothing happened.

      <![CDATA[Hillman city isn't just rainier and orcas (although I still have high hopes for that area).<br />
<br />
I technically live in "Hillman City" - I think we'd be better off just being renamed Columbia City.  It's SO SO close - why not?

      <![CDATA[1.) Being close to beacon hill is a positive thing? I mean, I've lived on Beacon Hill for ten years, and the best thing about it has always been that you can get to more interesting places fairly quickly. <br />
<br />
2.) What is grape blunt smoking? Is that something the kids are doing these days?<br />

      <![CDATA[There is late night dining, we just didn't know where it was when I moved in. Also there is no car keying down here, the laws of the street stipulate that you must at least break in and try to jack some shit for sterno money. Not like those animals in Northgate.

      <![CDATA[I'm glad you posted about this. I just learned this today, too, and while it sounds like the alliance wasn't particularly effective, it was something that stood for the evolution of Hillman City into something greater than it's current, shabby obscurity. <br />
<br />
I rented an awesome house near Rainier and Orcas about 7 weeks ago and regret nothing. I'm close to Georgetown, Beacon Hill, Seward Park, Columbia City, Downtown, I-5, Lake Washington, and so many nail salons. Best reliable cheap eats within walking distance is the taco truck at the gas station at Rainier and Graham. $1 steak tacos. So tasty. <br />
<br />
And who doesn't love that grape blunt smoking seems to be at least tolerated in the very rear of the #7 and #7 Express.
