SAWYER HEIGHTS ARBY’S UPGRADING TO LA MADELEINE, ADDING SAUCE 
The shuttered Arby’s waving to I-10 eastbound feeder road drivers exiting at Taylor has been gutted, there’s a hole in the outside wall, and the drive-thru window is being filled in. All in service of transforming the Sawyer Heights shopping center slot at 2423 Katy Fwy., next to Vitamin Shoppe, into a La Madeleine, notes reader Christopher Andrews. Included in his tweeted photo report from the Target-anchored center: a TABC notice posted in the storefront, for the wine portion of the “country French café” menu.

Pour out a bottle of Arby’s sauce for what might have been.
Oh yeh. It definitely feels like an Arby’s night.
The Chedda Roast-beef-pocalypse is killing historic preservation of ground floor retail.
Now a La Madeleine will be useful. Still miss their Croque Monsieur of days gone by…
