Quick synopsis: Mortgages Limited, the lender for Centerpoint Condominiums, is attempting to force the developer into Chapter 7. Currently, the developer is in Chapter 11 whereby they hope to “reorganize” and obtain an additional 45 million dollars from a new lender and finish the first tower. By convincing a judge to move the developer from Chapter 11 to Chapter 7, Mortgages Limited will force the sale of the assets in order to pay back the creditors. Hearings are scheduled for Wednesday and February 26, 2009.

Mojo Yogurt on Mill Avenue Downtown Tempe

Fro-Yo- Mojo that is! The newest store from the “Mojo Yogurt” concept opens today with another sleek and modern space mere steps off the light rail station at Mill Avenue and 3rd Street. With a fresh, good-for-you product, this yogurt lounge is also “self-serve”, allowing yogurt fans to pile on any of the 28 flavors and toppings as high as they want. But before everyone runs over and starts filling up 5 gallon buckets, remember that they charge by weight (.39¢ an ounce). For those who prefer to drink their yogurt, you can also create your own bowl and then have one of the Mojo-cuties behind the counter mix it up into a smoothie.
With it’s red glittering tile, flat screen TV’s, and furniture that looks as though it was taken out of Austin Power’s lair, this new yogurt shop is much welcome “Mojo” for Mill Avenue!

Tempe Town Lake

According to published reports, the bike, walking and jogging boardwalk surrounding Tempe Town Lake is about to expand. Near the South bank of Tempe Town Lake, the paths will extend between Rural Road, past the Eastern dam, all the way to McClintock Drive. This is the equivalent of another mile of paths. The extension is slated to be completed within the next 8 or 9 months.
For all those who haven’t taken advantage of the giant recreation and linear park area that is Tempe Town Lake, take a stroll down by the lake and prepare to be impressed. The City of Tempe has given it’s residents, especially it’s Downtown Tempe residents, a truly amazing public park.
