MDC is hard at work – again – on the Farmington Avenue. I’m not sure anyone knows why, although at this point it seems like MDC just shows up in order to block traffic. Aren’t they supposed to announce this, so people can make arrangements to get around it? Probably they do, buried somewhere deep on their website.
Work at the former Aetna or Comet Diner proceeds at a brisk pace. I’m looking forward to this getting back online! When I first arrived in Hartford, it was a burger joint called Oasis, and it was a great place to get a burger and a milkshake. The current owner has done tremendous work on the site, remediating several environmental hazards, and his crew is now working on the structure itself. The return of this diner, and NINA’s two homes, marks a real upswing in investment and revitalization on this stretch of Farmington Avenue.
