Grandfields Coffee Closed

I haven’t confirmed this myself, but I now hear that Grandfields, the log cabin themed coffee shop at 1 St. Helens, closed last week.  I know a lot of you liked the place.  One guy in the office can’t say enough good things about their chocolate whip cream.  Whip cream on coffee is sacrilege by the way.  Personally, the idea that somebody would build a log cabin in the Stadium District always bothered me.  The rumor I heard is that the lease rate on the land went way up and Grandfields bailed.

    A very wise and progressive politican had the idea of a Tour de Rainier (bicycle trek to the Mountain) and his name is Dennis Flannigan. Why not build on this idea and support a train to the Mountain with adjoining stations for commuter auto, bicycle, bus and pedestrian connections?
