The Bowl and Board space

[dangone.livejournal.com]

So I was just thinking, is there anything that we can do as a community to prevent the landlords from charging an exorbitant amount of rent for that space?

I had posted yesterday that the space is on loopnet.com for 20k and people started tweeting about it, everyone in shock.  Basically it got me thinking, do residents have a say in what gets placed in the space?

Only a restaurant or bar or chain will be able to afford that rent.

It would really suck if it was a Qdoba.

I just couldn't parse exactly what you were going for, whether it was "exert community pressure on the building owners" or "change the zoning laws" or "change the area development plan" or "overthrow the government entirely and let the state wither away."
