What's Going in the living water building?

[dianeaapril]

Anyone know what is going in the building that "Living Waters Plumbing" used to be in on the the corner of Rt 250 and Main St?

No, but I'll be watching this thread too!
It's fun to try and guess what could work there.

Maybe a smoking lounge for patrons of Burke's?

Ok, I deleted what I wrote previously.

I do think a smoking lounge for the Burksters would be lovely!
I don't think I would miss seeing them if they were hidden.

I really hope whoever bought the living water plot does something worthy of the real estate. This could be a good place for a signature building with a little architecture so it enhances the main intersection. Anything less and I'm disappointed. Oh, and please, don't put up a free standing clock tower. Think of something original.

On the tangent topic concerning Burke's: I don't mind that the smokers are outside, their right. But do they have to be "glued" with their backs to the building or sitting in the doorway? Does not make the establishment inviting.

I completely agree: the four corners could surely use some enhancing and that would be a great place to start.

As for the second part of your post, I think I've said before how ironic it seems that those smokers stand facing Willard H. Scott's place across the street!

I looked up the Monroe County Records for this property, and "Webster Crossing LLC" purchased the building.What that is, I don't know. Probably something boring like a Scotch Tape Store.....

I'm thinking Webster Crossing LLC is the same company that is building the senior housing by the railroad tracks on Holt RD.

Could be wrong though - with these LLC's no one knows who owns what or what they even do.

A local business owner purchased it (not related to Scenic Village). He's considering a small coffee shop and sandwich counter type place.

[Felix]

Anything is better than what was there. But, I have to ask this question - where is the parking to support a sandwich shop coffee bar?

I think this will be short lived. They might have been better off putting a back door in Burke's and making the addition a smoke shop!

I was also wondering how it would work with parking. I would patronize Bassetti's if the parking were easier.


Do any of you on this board smoke in the doorway of Burke's? I'll wave next time I pass by.

[Felix]

I have to say in all the years I have lived in Webster, I have never been in Burke's or any of the other fine drinking establishments in the village!

[webstergirl23]

The same people that own Maplewood Nursing Home i heard purchased the building. I hear they are thinking of putting an icecream/hot dog parlor. But that was just a rumor. Looks like they are working to get it cleaned up so we'll have to wait and see. As far as parking - yup it sucks, but that happens in any village shop - have to park in the public parking and walk there.

Hope they suceed in what ever they do.

When my friend Bob the plumber had the building he took pretty good care of it. My he RIP.
