Blogging Wyoming to Pennsylvania

Michelle Worley, blogging Abq's Central Avenue. On this Saturday, Mariah, Danny, and I headed out to Central and Wyoming to pick up where we left off last time.

Bea's 
First, this is the hood that has the old Bea's Restaurant. I have been looking forward to walking by this building and taking photos. Turns out that, although this restaurant has been closed a while, there is a Bea's 2 on Zuni just a little ways away. In fact, you can see it from Central. And it is doing fine, according to my google search. I think I should definitely visit. It gets good reviews for its authentic NM dishes. 

Delgado's Photography
The little shop once known as Delgado's Photography was so sad to me. I think it's the signs. I can't tell when it was last in business but it's been a while. Does anyone know anything about it? 

There was one out-of-business motel and one that is still in business. We also saw one auto business that was open but had a For Sale sign up. There aren't as many auto businesses on this leg of the journey. 

The Numbers
Today, we covered Central between Wyoming and Pennsylvania. There are 28 businesses. Twenty (71%) of them are in business, and eight (29%) are out of business. The total for the entire length between Tramway and Pennsylvania is 214 total, with 152 in business and 62 out of. The percentages are the same. We seem to have a trend going.

Join Us!
Some of our readers have said they'd like to join us on our walks when we get to their hoods. Great idea! Anyone is welcome to join us anywhere along the line. We are going to start announcing on our website where we will be each day we walk and what time. This means we have to start being more organized. That is a challenge. Stay tuned.
