The area's first Einstein Brother's Bagels location. Should work well on a college campus.
Let's hope they plan on adding more locations in the area. I don't imagine the location in the Biotech Building will be very accessible for the general public.
Marshall has room in front of the Biotech Building for short-term parking. That would allow the general public accessibility to that food option and any future additions. I'm sure there can be space found to add an additional food option. That would create some nice options for the north side of campus.
When that building opened, either Marshall, the city or both, eliminated street parking. Looking at it now, that was the wrong move and they should work to correct it.
I've always wanted them to build a parking garage on the lot directly in front of Steel of WV and make it appear like a building from the front. If they build it with places for businesses in the bottom, they would be accessible to MU students and the public. That would also finish filling in that block and make it seem a lot more developed. Then, you would also get the added benefit of almost completely blocking Steel of WV from view as well.
That does look pretty nice. They'd just need to add some business spaces in the bottom. The same type of development on 4th Ave in the parking lot next to the Coal Exchange building would likely help to redevelop that building as well.
