I love the historic Market Arcade building where our offices are, and am very impressed with the way the landlord, Sinatra Realty, runs the place. One of the challenges of the place has always been the restaurant, which has been two different brewpubs, and a Cajun joint,and a couple of other concepts over the years. It's a big space, and nobody ever seemed to be able to figure out how to make it work. Sinatra figured out that one big restaurant hadn't worked out, so he carved it into a food court, which created dining diversity and made it sustainable for lunch and the pre-theater crowd. The Expo, which is a dumb name, has a bar and an excellent sushi bar and a pasta stand and a couple of other things. It used to have a sandwich shop which I quite liked, but that has folded its tent, and will be replaced by a gourmet hot dog stand. I don't really see that working, but I wish them luck
