Ruehl was boring clothing, carbon-copied from the Abercrombie mold and sold at even higher prices...
It's another Krispy Kreme case of a brand expanding too quickly, reproducing like mad and expecting to stay financially afloat. It defied the rules of business and went bust. I'm not shocked.

I tried to shop at the Ruehl here in Dallas, but didn't see anything that was really attractive. Also the sizing was bizarre, people in their 20's and 30's aren't twigs. Their XL was the size of a medium just about anywhere else.

That's a common complaint. It's sized for high schoolers. My sister-in-law is a 2/4 at J Crew and Ann Taylor, but an 8 at the Abercrombie stores, due to the nutty sizing.

Does anyone know if Yard House is still a go? I heard a rumor they might be pulling out, but I hope not - that place is awesome!

There is a sign posted on the wall outside that says they have applied for a liquor license. I'm guessing that they are waiting on their license.
Has anyone heard about when Jaspers is opening or have they pulled out? I thought they would be open by now. If all goes as planned and Yard House and Jaspers opens, this will give phase two a great boost with the water falls and fountains (if we can get off water restrictions), it will really be a great area.

The corner across from Jaspers is set up for another restaurant. I'm sure something will be going there in the future.
