The Panera marker previously spotted all by its lonesome in the leasing flier for Braun Enterprises’ redevelopment of 1705 W. Gray has picked up a companion in the form of the Kriser’s Natural Pet logo. The marker for the grain-averse pet supply and grooming store now appears on the freestanding former home of International Hair Salon & Nail Spa (shown above), previously marked up in Braun’s renderings as a possible coffee shop. 

The reader who snagged the shot above also spent some time sniffing around the back and sides of the complex (to be known as the River Oaks Collection). The wall in the shot below is starting to get its coat of grey paint cleaned off to match the mottled brick exterior shown in the redo renderings:

The partially-scraped structure is the 2-story building whose ground floor may hold Panera; on the far right of the shot, the edge of the potential pet store is visible. Closer to the electrical substation is the single-story building previously marked up only as Restaurant — here’s a peek inside:

  • Wow. That thing’s tiny! And are they really getting away with only six parking spaces and NO accessible spaces? For retail?

  • @ZAW… Plenty of parking in the rear; enter from Peden & Ridgewood…
