Visitors Center is open
 

The late June Shaker Square Update email said that the new Visitors Center would open today, Monday, July 1. We just walked in early afternoon and were welcomed by one of the key people in the bringing back better of Shaker Square: Akil Hameed, of FASS Commercial Real Estate Services. He said the center will be staffed the next day and soon there will be a (temporary) sign above the door. (Note: A sign on the building, above the door, will take longer as it needs city approval before it can be made and erected.)

It's a small, completely renovated space. The front door opens into a large multi-function room that will soon have information for visitors. Walking back, there's a small conference room, and in the rear a fully equipped Police and Fire Break Room.

Soon this Visitors Center will be helping in many ways to make Shaker Square a more welcoming place.

Below: the first announcement of the Visitors Center, and a few pictures.
