Our Famous Parking Lot

Our parking lot was on TV! During a KSDK segment featuring Mary Strauss complaining that the Fox doesn't have enough surface parking (puh-leese!), our own little slab of asphalt took a star turn. The audio went like this: "Wednesday was a big night at the Fox Theater. Hundreds of students took the stage. Their parents packed the parking lot." The video showed the lot reserved exclusively for visitors to Gary's / People's Coffee / The Commonspace, which was indeed packed by Fox patrons. You can tell the cars' owners weren't at Gary's because there weren't any cars down the middle of the lot blocking in everyone else.

On the night of the recent David Bowie concert at the Fox, I counted 11 cars in our lot. Gary's and People's Coffee / The Commonspace were closed at the time. Gee, I wonder where those people were.
