The Cala Bell Tolls for Thee

So we asked the cashier, as they rang up our Stoli and cardamom, OMFG WTF BBQ? Nobody knows for sure, but the Cala folks predicted that after the store closes for good on May 24th, it'll get torn down. We'll miss its 24-hourishness, but we still say good riddance -- a single-story building with an underused parking lot? You can't get much lower-density than that. What a waste of a deceptively large piece of property. We wouldn't be surprised to see 3-level apartments go up in its place, with ground-level retail; that seems to be working out pretty well at the location just a few blocks away where a empty lot was replaced by housing and stores.
