It was a nice, if very plain internally, Denny's until very recently. I, too, would like it to become something more, as Seattle is quickly turning all its neighborhoods into condo castles. Ballard, I'm sure, could use somne condominium towers... SOME. Not one on every lot. I, for one, hope residents save this place and do something with it. Not necessarily something tiki, but something nice. A Ballard history center maybe? Many residents are still very proud of their heritage, and many (judging by the letters I see in the paper) aren't happy about the condo flood. Not that the individuals can do much when their landlords sell in a heartbeat and evict them. Yes, some individuals do sell, for many different reasons. I'm not going hard-edged here, no "stop them all" or "bring them all> There's a middle ground.
