Old and New

There is a large warehouse-type amalgam of stores on West Sixth at Baylor. It is called Whit Hanks Center, I think, and Whit Hanks is a purveyor of antiques who seems to have drifted into the real estate business by developing this and leasing areas of the building to other antique dealers. An antique door frame was established on the lawn to hold a sign near the street, but at present it has one for the big tenant in that corner, Nest, which is a store specializing in modern furniture where we got several new things for furnishing our condo. And, yes, the 1009 was added and is the address of the center (1009 W. Sixth). The other shops are mostly antiques and fun for a visit. (Follow the link above.)
