Can Midtown Survive its Latest Gentrification Wave?
There’s a time machine in Midtown, a portal on the corner of L and 20th streets. It’s one of those Midtown insider things. But, anyway, this secret wormhole transports you a few years into the future. Seriously. Step inside, flash-forward to just 2018, and you’ll be surprised: This very street corner, where a keyboardist usually plays quirky compositions on weekend nights and collects money inside a glowing plastic skull, has been transformed. In the future, this muddy, unlandscaped plot is the flashy new entrance to a Whole Foods Market.

Midtown Office Building Could Change to Retail Use
A recently sold midtown Sacramento office building has been home to a physical therapist’s office for the better part of 24 years, but there’s likely a different future in store.
