Do You Strip?

Keep your clothes on, I meant do you shop at strip malls? ; } And sorry, this is not about the Coyote Strip Club, I think WFMZ 69 News, "the family minded zone" has that story covered. They even led with it last night as top news.

The iconic Saylor's Diner at the corner of 19th and Tilghman will be torn down to make way for a new modern strip center! Well, at least it won't be an Auto Zone. I really miss Sunday breakfast at Saylor's, but times they change, sweetheart. They don't call it a strip mall, it's a strip center. I'd like to know what the difference is? This article answers my question : http://www.thestrategicedge.com/Articles/strips.htm Well, call it what you'd like it still sounds like a boring mall to me.

So what kind of stores do you envision in this new strip center? I think we have enough hair salons in the area. I could do without the "19th Strip&Tease." Remember "Curl up and Dye"on Sumner Ave? Eewwww!

So does anyone know what's going on with The Shanty? How could such a great location remain vacant for so long? It just doesn't make any sense. Allentown is so completely unpredictable. I see someone finally took down the awning which was falling apart. The shabbiness did kinda take away from the new celebratory "Theatre District" banners. But you could always spin that as "shabby chic!"

Well, I'm looking forward to all the fanfare when the new strip opens. Maybe they'll even have a "Dancin' on the Strip" party. I could plan that for them.
