  2. The Ace hardware store definitely can benefit from this. Plus the stores and restaurants across from Sonic on Wilson Ave. And last the eye glasses store on Wilson Ave next to that clothing store. The clothing store has done well upgrading their windows but they need to cleanup the windows where they have their jewelry displayed. Those couple windows are a sore eye because their right in the corner and they are never cleaned.

  3. Oh and I forgot the whole mini mall on the 4500 block of Sheridan can use a facelift! That way La Ciudad and the rest of the stores and restaurants become more appealing for walking traffic. La Ciudad is the nicest looking space in that mini mall. Now just cleanup the rest and outside exterior of the mini mall.
