About Town

 
Ad
 

In this week’s About Town, we learn who’s buying Midtown’s Bob’s Barksdale diner and what changes may be coming. (Hint: Breakfast is about to be brunch.) And we meet Keith Josiah, an artist and Delano Elementary alumnus who donated 50 pairs of Nikes for the kindergarteners at his old alma mater. Plus, big streetscape updates are coming to the area near Graceland.

The name will change from Bob’s Barksdale to Barksdale’s, but the spirit of Bob Henry will remain.
