I went by the Art Holiday last week on two different days and there was some activity going on inside. At least that appeared to be the case since the security door was up on both days. No record of a sale on the BRT site yet so maybe this is just routine maintenance to keep it from falling down.

Frankford Business and Professional Association
Jon Campisi, of the Northeast Times, reports this week on the most recent meeting of the Frankford Business and Professional Association. The subject of the revitalization of the business corridor was discussed extensively.
The group discussed using ideas in a report by the Urban land Institure (Ten Principles for Rebuilding Neighborhood Retail) as a starting point. While it may seem like we have been down this road before, this is a new group of people very focussed on success. Do not fall into that old comfortable cynicism that makes it easier to sit back and do nothing.

No that is not a funny face on the front door, it is graffiti that the owner should remove. Absentee owner who does not have to look at it everyday.
