It’s emptier than expected at 9:30 p.m. Sunday. Much more Spanish is spoken than English and McDonald’s is pretty full.

Al who lives around the block has been hired by the liquor store, the apartment building next door and Zoe’s to get the gum off the sidewalk

A lot of the restaurants are closed or empty at this time. Two doing pretty well are EL Farolito and Gudalajara. Pig & Pie (formerly Discolandia) is also holding its own.

  1. Ah man, that dude Albert! He’s pretty much the mayor of Harrison St. He keeps the peace. Remembers the folks in the neighborhood when they pass. He’s the best.
