A quick search for "pearl mass ave closing" -- a giant, 2-story art store has recently vacated my neighborhood (GIVE ME THAT SPACE, PLEASE!) -- led me to this article and this blog, which I've added to the blog roll.
So, now back to chickens and eggs. Do I run, not walk to email the names referenced in the article and inquire about the plans for these spaces and try to pitch them my heart-felt ideas? Or do I work work work on all of the planning/501c3/support(/fundraising? Nowhere near ready for that yet) and THEN seek these people out and say look what I've got brewing?

At the very least, I can't see the harm in sending a feeler's e-mail to get some basic details. I wouldn't sell it like you're ready to rent, but give just enough details to let them know you're serious. Non-commital, but professional, if you will.
ReplyDeleteAlways continue the chickens and eggs work. But don't let it stop you from checking out leads.
